GOP: Drug Test the Unemployed & Welfare Recipients (for 12/9/11)

GOP Representative Jack Kingston of Georgia wants to test unemployment insurance applicants for drug abuse. In Florida, welfare applicants there faced drug testing starting earlier this year after its government passed a new law. But, then a federal hudge declared this testing in Florida unconstitutional. Those on welfare in Florida also have less failed drug tests compared to the national average.
