The saga of Bonner & Associates / Hawthorn Group / American Coalition for a Clean-Coal Electricity and the sending of fraudulent letters to Congress opposing the American Clean Energy & Security (ACES) Act continues with documents submitted by these organizations to The U.S. House of Representatives’ Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming, whose chairman (Congressman Ed Markey) launched an investigation after learning of this fraud.
