This organization is a vile group of people who are using your tax dollars to derail the democratic process every chance they get. Congress cut off their funding on a temporary basis to appease the tax payers. This cut off is due to end soon and unless you contact your representative, tax payer dollars will be allowed to slip under the radar to continue funding this group. If you are not aware of ACORN.... spend a little time on the internet and look at the founders and their history. Neither are very pretty.
