ACORN Spinoff Smacked Down by HUD Inspector General
by Connie Hair, Human Events, 09/24/2010
ACORN, was, is and will always be corrupt. Yet, it still has not answered for tens of millions of dollars of tax money given it to help the poor.
"...awarded under HUDs Housing Counseling Program to ACORN Housing Corporation, Inc. (AHC) of Chicago, now operating as Affordable Housing Centers of America (AHCOA).
For continued approval as a HUD-approved housing counseling agency and for future awards consideration, AHC (now operating as AHCOA) must bring its operations into full compliance with applicable laws, regulators, and policies governing HUDs Housing Counseling Program, the OIGs report recommends. The inability to fully support salary expenses allocated to the HUD grant raises serious concerns about the integrity of those charges, particularly given the millions of Federal and non-Federal dollars made available to AHC in FY 2008 and 2009. Further, services procured from ACORN associated organizations failed to meet the required tests of open and free competition. We recommend that HUDs Office of Single Family Housing, Program Support Division consider placing AHCOA in inactive status while its initiatives corrective actions to address the exceptions and recommendations in this report.
Who is going to jail? Oh, I forgot, Obama once worked for this organization, they are protected.
