Nora Harris is a well-known tax activist and president of Empower Arkansas.

In 1998 she became embroiled in the controversy surrounding the funding of the Clinton Library, filing suit against the City of Little Rock. To pay for the land as promised for Clinton's library, city officials had issued $16.4 million in park revenue bonds. Harris complained that the improvement bond issue had not been put to a citywide vote.

Pulaski County Chancellor Alice Gray ruled against Harris in June 1999.
