California ACORN breaks off into new nonprofit group

The community organization group will keep the same mission and many of the same staffers, but will not belong to the troubled national alliance.

California ACORN has broken away from its embattled parent organization to form a new nonprofit group, a move that observers say might foreshadow other defections that would seriously undermine one of the nation's largest and most politically powerful community organizations.

Thank you for this. We need to keep up on these people. I thought they had changed the name to COI early last year?

PS....hope the Who sings “Won’t Get Fooled Again” at half time during the Super Bowl...bet the NFL says nix...don’t want to offend Obama supporters don’t cha know...right now polls show over half the voters won’t get fooled again and re-elect Obama.

Maybe that was a national change. The California group is now "the Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment".

Otherwise known as "dirty deeds, done dirt cheap".
