Metro Briefing New York: Mineola: Bill to License Tattoo Parlors
By AL BAKER (NYT) (COMPILED BY ANTHONY RAMIREZ)

A Republican bill to have all Nassau County tattoo parlors licensed by the county's Health Department has quickly gained bipartisan support. The bill, proposed yesterday by Legislator Vincent Muscarella, would also require anyone under 18 to receive notarized parental consent before being tattooed, branded or having body parts pierced, except for the ear. Concerns about diseases being transmitted through unclean needles led to the legislation. If passed, the law would take effect on Jan. 1, and violators would face fines of up to $1,000.

Is this all we get from Vincent Muscarella after 12 long years in the Nassau County Legislature?

Apparently so.

On Tuesday, November 6th, make it no more one hit wonders. Elect Michael Uhl, and watch the hits keep coming!
