August 26th, 2009 by Matthew VadumSteve Beatty of the Pelican Institute for Public Policy reports that he found (PDF) that
ACORN and several closely related groups now owe more than $1 million in state and federal taxes, according to Orleans Parish court filings analyzed by The Pelican Institute for Public Policy. They also paid off more than $1.1 million in late bills since January of 2008.

A list of the liens is available here. (PDF)
I recently wrote about ACORN’s unpaid back taxes in the American Spectator.
