"If so many jobs require random drug tests these days, why not these benefits?"
Only certain jobs like pilots and other transportation workers can be drug tested because suspicionless searches are a violation of the Fourth Amendment of our Constitution.
Republicans that have absolute contempt for our constitution like this idiot jerk are one of the reasons I quit the Republican party.

If they don’t want to be “searched” all they have to do is not come looking for a check from the tax payers! There is NOTHING ‘unreasonable’ about trying to prevent tax payers from paying for clearly illegal activities.
What is your alternative?

Lots and lots of companies have pre-emp screening. If you handle health records — random testing all the time!

You sir are sorely mistaken! EVERY job on oil refineries require random drug testing, almost every construction company requires random drug testing, several industrial companies require random drug testing.
But, this money is NOT a right. Just like I have the right to work for a company that does not require drug testing, these guys can go to work and not get this money.
