Time to Audit and Cut off State Funding for ACORN

The Governor has asked the Attorney General Jerry Brown to investigate ACORN. Based on the video sting in San Bernardino and San Diego that is a good first start.

Congress just cut off funds to ACORN. But, the question I have gotten over the last few days is what does ACORN get from the state. ACORN is made up of an array of organizations. Some of this organizations may be getting funds from various agencies may be granting them funds for "outreach", housing, voter registration etc… 

I asked the Governor to find out if money is going from these agencies to ACORN and if it is shut it off. Of course we shouldn’t fund these types of groups with state dollars to begin with. But, we should be able to stop this one.
