Representative O'Connell Makes Media Appearances

In case you missed it, Representative Shaunna O’Connell recently made a handful of media appearances. As you may have heard, the eight-member Electronic Benefit Transfer Card Commission voted on Thursday to approve a final report before its April 1 deadline that recommended banning the use of EBT cards at nail salons, tattoo parlors, firearm dealers, bars, smoke shops or spas. Representative O’Connell weighed in on the panel’s findings, as well as their shortcomings in terms of solutions to combat EBT card abuse.
