The PGCB told PlayPennsylvania on Monday that there are 19,678 self-excluded individuals through June 10.
Back in April, Fontana gave players another layer of protection by sponsoring a bill that bans players from depositing money into a gambling account with a credit card.
Both pieces of legislation proves that Fontana is looking out for the best interest of players and is making responsible gambling in Pennsylvania a top priority.
