With your help the ACU will:

1. Track all of ACORN’s former leaders.
2. Ensure that we know when they create new groups to continue ACORN’s work.
3. Work with Congress to ensure these new groups do not get federal funding.
4. Provide training to candidates this year so they are aware of ACORN’s tactics and what ACORN might do in their districts or states to defeat them.
