When [[ACORN]] was questioned regarding their tactics, they replied with a classic [[Alinsky]] attack of their own, flipping the narrative.

During [[President Obama]]'s [[IRS scandal]], Cummings attacked the [[Texas]] True the Vote organization in a letter. He wrote that "some have suggested that your true goal is not voter integrity, but [[voter suppression]] against thousands of legitimate voters who traditionally vote for Democratic candidates." He added that: "If these efforts are intentional, politically motivated, and widespread across multiple states, they could amount to a criminal conspiracy to deny legitimate voters their constitutional rights." He also decried True the Vote on [[MSNBC]] and [[CNN]].
