Howard Rich

Howard S. Rich, also known as Howie Rich is an American real estate investor who is notable for funding libertarian-oriented political initiatives such as term limits, school choice, parental rights regarding education, limited government, and property rights. He has published essays advocating these positions. He founded advocacy organizations including Americans for Limited Government and U.S. Term Limits. He is the former chairman of the Legislative Education Action Drive and the Parents in Charge Foundation. Rich has been described as one of the "lower-profile moneymen in American politics" but as a prominent "force in elections across the country." Rich focuses his advocacy mostly on local issues like term limits, not on national campaigns, and doesn't see himself as leaning right or left. ''National Public Radio'' identified Rich as a leader behind the independent groups with potential to influence elections. Provided by Wikipedia
