Biography
Lori Klein
Lori
Klein is the owner of Lori Klein & Associates, which specializes
in fundraising for non-profit issue advocacy and limited government projects.
For nearly two decades she has labored to manage and pass voter initiatives
to protect Arizonans and their rights.
Her conservative resume is quite extensive. She served as the Executive
Director and Director of Development for Medical Choice for Arizona
(Proposition 101) that was defeated by a mere 8,000 votes of the
2.1 million votes cast in 2008. She is currently working in Development
raising funds for The Health Care Freedom Act which will be
on the Arizona November 2010 ballot. Both of those efforts were designed
to protect Arizona residents from any successful efforts to nationalize
health care through plans like “Obamacare.”
She was the Executive Director and Spokesperson for Proposition 207 which
passed with 65% of the vote in 2006. Prop 207 provided protection for
private property owners from government takings by eminent domain or
excessive regulations. Thanks to these efforts, Arizona now has the strongest
private property rights in the nation.
Ms. Klein served the National Director of Development for Americans for
Fair Taxation from 2002–2006. She worked as the Executive Director and
then the Director of Public Affairs for the Arizona School Choice Trust
in 1998 and served for six years as Chairman of its Advisory Board.
She was the Executive Director of the Taxpayer Protection Alliance in
1999–2000 which spearheaded Proposition 107, a ballot initiative that
would have eliminated the Arizona state personal and corporate income
tax over the course of four years, making Arizona competitive with Nevada,
Washington and Texas in attracting business.
Ms. Klein has been active in the Arizona Republican Party as a Precinct
Committeeman and as a former member of the Ponderosa Republican Women.
Ms. Klein and her three sons live in Anthem. She attends Fellowship church in Anthem.
