Sen. Vitter on ACORN and the Census


Washington News Observer has a new video in which Sen. David Vitter (R-Louisiana) offers an update on what’s going on in Congress regarding ACORN and the Census.

Vitter covers some of the same ground I covered in an American Spectator article about the report issued by Republican investigators on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee last week. (I covered much of the material last year in Foundation Watch.)

That report recommended that the election fraud factory known as ACORN be stripped of its tax-exempt status because it illegally spends taxpayer dollars on partisan activities, commits “systemic fraud,” and violates racketeering and election laws.

As a side note, I have a long article about ACORN called “Stealing Democracy” appearing in the August edition of Townhall magazine. The piece is available only in the hard copy edition.

Here is the Vitter video:
