RE: DEFUND ACORN PERMANENTLY!

Dear [Sen.] or [Rep.] [LAST NAME]:

I'm writing to ask you to please DEFUND the "community organizer" group ACORN -- and this time, please defund it PERMANENTLY.

"ACORN" -- the "Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now" -- has broken numerous laws during their "activities,". ACORN has committed crimes ranging from false voter registrations and illegal voting, to identity theft and records tampering, to using felons as registration workers. And as you know, recently, a private undercover "sting" operation showed ACORN employees were willing to help human sex slave traffickers to run their illegal "businesses" -- and how to dodge having to pay taxes, on top of it.

And MY taxpayer dollars helped them to do it! Thankfully, as a result of the overwhelming scandals that this group has been involved in, and after a HUGE public outcry, you and your colleagues recently voted to de-fund ACORN. But, now, it turns out that you only did it for ONE MONTH -- and they'll be getting taxpayer money AGAIN starting on November 1st!

ACORN has received more than $53 million in direct taxpayer funding since 1994, and countless millions more through grants from financial institutions throughout the country. And, bills passed this year could give ACORN access to as much as $10 billion more. Don't let this happen! Please, DEFUND the "community organizer" group ACORN -- and this time, please defund it PERMANENTLY. Thank you.

Sincerely,

[YOUR NAME]
