That is a requirement and in no way even considered a form of discrimination. There is no mandatory drug testing in some states in order to receive government assistance in the form of welfare benefits or workers compensation. The idea of forcing a man or woman to pass a drug test so that they can work is deemed acceptable; however, requiring someone to pass the same test to be allowed government assistance is somehow discrimination. However, that testing would deter a majority of the scoundrels taking advantage of government assistance. Whenever federal funding to help America 's disadvantaged is debated, the abusers are the only one 's who seem to be discussed. While there are definitely scallywags who have found ways to circumvent the system to their benefit, there are substantially more people who sincerely need the help they get. Kimberly J.
