Lorraine Marie Tablang Badoy-Partosa,[1][2] better known as Lorraine Badoy and sometimes also called Lorraine Partosa,[3] is a Filipino physician,[4] government official, and political figure best known for having been one of the spokespersons of the National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict,[5] and for being involved in various controversies relating to the practice of red-tagging in the Philippines.[6][7][8]

Badoy-Partosa was also Undersecretary of the Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO)[9] and Assistant Secretary of the Department of Social Welfare and Development.[10] She is the half-sister of advocacy leader and educator Gang Badoy[11] and the niece of former Cotabato City Mayor Ludovico Badoy.[12]

Prior to her appointment to government, Badoy-Partosa was known for being an avid supporter of President Rodrigo Duterte during his campaign.[13]

Civil complaints seeking ₱2 million in damages have been filed against Badoy-Partosa by activist Carol Araullo[14] and separately by her son, journalist Atom Araullo,[15] for Badoy-Partosa's repeated red-tagging of them in public. Atom Araullo decided not to file libel charges on Badoy-Partosa as he is against the criminalization of libel, which is used to harass legitimate media in the Philippines.[15]
