And they will scream that those drugs are legal. Pot.
Actions have consequences. Hope that Trump can pull this off without some drugged out liberal judge stopping it.

Just saying Donald,
You need to focus on bringing back jobs to America first.
That is FIRST. Jobs. Then you can focus on making sure people are not abusing things like this.
But focus on American jobs first. Now.

You take benefits from gov, you become essentially an “employee”, and as such there should be SOME standards

Finally, something will be done about this. Drug addiction is one of the main problems destructive to this country throughout every aspect of our lives..Families are destroyed, children are hurt, crime soars, drug lords are everywhere, prisons are full, welfare soars, poverty grows, vehicle accidents take lives as a result, suicides mount, school failure soars, ERs are full of addicts seeking drugs or in overdose, homelessness grows and much more. All that does not even touch the damage being done to us through addicted public servants, Hollywood, the media and those we rely on not to be high and without judgment. I say test public officials and the media first and if they are found to have drugs in their system, out they go. I have seen an Oxycontin addict up close and she was a PhD, a beautiful person who was good and nice before addiction. After addiction, she was cruel, narcissistic, aggressive, had wrecks, hurt others and never apologized. She had no judgment and felt that she owned the world. When she came down off a high, she was scary. Rehab twice hardly helped at all. This is a terrible scourge on this country and the drug trade is huge. Thank you, President Trump. Perhaps the threat of this is one of the reason the bad people hate you so much. They do not want to give up their sex, drugs and corruption.

That’s great. Now let’s pass a law requiring Congress and ALL government employees being subjected to drug tests.

A liberal judge will block it, no doubt. Don’t know what grounds, but (s)he’ll try.

This has to be racist...or something.
Everybody knows that people on welfare are more stressed and do more drugs than working people. It's just not fair.

Do you know why we had Jennifer Grandholm as Gov for 8 yrs ( or at least the last 4 years of it )?
One of the big reasons sited is Besty DeVos's Husband, Dick DeVos who ran for Governor of Michigan and one of his hallmarks in his platform was to have welfare recipients drug tested.
Maybe the time for such requirements are here and it may take federal/POTUS action to make it happen, even though I'd rather see a 10th Amendment-ish solution.

Couple of years ago, Texas legislature passed a bill that was to drug test those seeking welfare benefits. They added those folks who lost their jobs and sought unemployment insurance payments.
All said and done, the bill passed, only after stripping out those on welfare. Grrrrr.
Folks sitting on their duffs get a pass from drug testing but those who lose their job and collect unemployment while trying to find another have to undergo drug test.
Now howz that for stupidity.

If I have to take a drug test in order to be employed (and pay taxes), they certainly can be drug-tested to take my hard-earned tax money for their welfare.

Trump to sign into law X
Some leftist judge overturning whatever X is in 5,4,3,2,1.
Yurtle the turtle will take a zillion vacations and otherwise put the Senate in recess before confirming any Trump judicial nominees or otherwise do nadda to curb judicial overreach.

“In what was quite possibly the opening salvo on welfare leeches, Trump was ready to sign a bill passed by Congress that would allow states to perform drug tests on those applying for unemployment benefits, WITI reported.”
Soooo, somebody who draws unemployment is now a welfare leech?
I am will to bet the vast majority of Freepers, with a few exceptions, have drawn unemployment at some point in their lives.
WTF?

I was subjected to mandatory drug testing while in the military, including while in Afghanistan. I have absolutely no issues with drug testing welfare recipients. In fact, I have no problem with making them work for their benefits.
