My email in support of ACORN to my Senators

Subject: I support ACORN

Some facts about the videos:

Tresa Kaelke of an ACORN office in San Bernardino made outrageous statements because she knew that she was talking to fakes.

ACORN helps the poor with housing and voter registration, and deserves federal funding.

Feel free to use my words in contacting your Senators and/or Congressperson.

1. ACORN woker in LA tried to get fake prostitute to go to a women's center

From (James) Rainey's September 23 Los Angeles Times column:

And visits to other ACORN offices have gone almost entirely unmentioned. Lavelle Stewart, a fair-housing coordinator in the group's Los Angeles office, told me this week that she tried to get the "prostitute," who claimed she had been beaten by her pimp, to go to a women's center.

"The fact she was not taking the help I offered her made me think something was not right," Stewart said. "It raised a red flag."
