                    <p></p><p>Dear Supporter:</p>
<p>Yesterday the <b>Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) </b>celebrated a major victory when we won an injunction against Congress' unconstitutional de-funding of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) for the second time. A federal judge ordered the United States and several government agencies to rescind orders cutting off funding to ACORN and its affiliates and allies.</p>
<p><b>Learn more about ACORN and the details of the case <i><a rel="nofollow" title="learn more about the ACORN v USA case" target="_blank" href="http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&amp;c=VHwf7%2BWzn1fANj%2FOkdfMkhNmrVohOm%2Fk">ACORN v. USA</a></i>.</b></p>
<p>By singling out ACORN, Congress acted as judge, jury and executioner without a trial or judicial hearing. <b>No organization should be unconstitutionally targeted by Congress. <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&amp;c=POCpaHSY5i3KpDExkqlB9hNmrVohOm%2Fk">Write to your representative and ask them to uphold due process and make no further attempts to single out or prevent ACORN from providing essential services to Americans</a>.</b></p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Annette Dickerson<br>
Director of Education of Outreach</p>
