Florida passes bill requiring mandatory drug testing for all welfare recipients!
BRAVO! The politicians finally act in the interest of the taxpayers. Yes if you are on welfare you have to be tested for drugs. The cost of the test comes out of their pocket, if they pass they get reimbursed, if they fail they lose benefits for 6 months. They can at their own expense take a second test, to challenge the results of the first. If the welfare recipient has minor children another adult can file for them to ensure they are fed and cared for. But, benefits to the failing person are not allowed, until they can successfully retest. Interesting in the Florida legislature the vote was divided along party lines, Luckily we have a majority of Republicans
