Background from BigGovernment.com report: on September 4th, FEMA handed over $1 million to the ACORN Institute, an ACORN affiliate in New Orleans.

Clearly, someone at FEMA is a player in Acorn's Criminal Enterprise. No taxpayer dollars should be given to it or any of it's 300+ affiliates ... especially in light of particularly eye-opening background at "Is ACORN Intentionally Structured As a Criminal Enterprise?", Staff Report U.S. House of Representatives 111th Congress, Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, July 23, 2009.
