Jeffery James Arnold (born July 26, 1967) is an American businessman and former politician who is the Louisiana Executive Director of America First Energy Project. Arnold was previously the CEO of the Association of Louisiana Electric Cooperatives. He was the former senior vice president of First NBC Bank in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Arnold was also the former dean of the Louisiana House of Representatives, where he represented District 102, which encompasses the Algiers neighborhood. Arnold was first sent to the House in a special election held on April 6, 2002. He was hence term-limited and was ineligible to seek a fourth four-year term in the 2015 legislative elections. Instead, Arnold ran unsuccessfully for the District 7 seat in the Louisiana State Senate, which encompasses parts of the west bank of Orleans, Jefferson, and Plaquemines parishes.
