Am I missing the problem here? Where is the “companies force workers to get genetic tests, share results” happening?

https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/1313/text

(b) Collection of information.—Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the collection of information about the manifested disease or disorder of a family member shall not be considered an unlawful acquisition of genetic information with respect to another family member as part of a workplace wellness program described in paragraph (1) or (2) offered by an employer (or in conjunction with an employer-sponsored health plan described in section 2705(j) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 300gg–4(j))) and shall not violate title I or title II of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (Public Law 110–233). For purposes of the preceding sentence, the term “family member” has the meaning given such term in section 201 of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (Public Law 110–233).

"Employees that resist could face penalties of thousands of dollars."

After court trials and repeated appeals, they may find the law difficult to enforce.

This bill is “quietly moving through the House”, eh?

You mean all those Republicans we put in there to support our President and make us the land of the free; the home of the brave again?

Everyone who trusted the GOP and/or hung their hopes on the Republicans ‘saving’ us, just got played. Again.

What did Comey say?

“there is no longer “absolute privacy” in the U.S....”

Waterboard?, or worse?

Sounds bad - still much more needed and even then, unless they have a veto-proof quorum, it might go the way of all the previous "attempts" to repeal Obamacare.

The question is, would folks on our side actually rise up in protest or just roll over????

Kind of like, do those who raise a stink here donate to FR or to political candidates that they claim to believe in....

So many people are now paying to give away their DNA - to learn “What genealogy am I?” - it blows me away. Like so many gave away facial recognition to Facebook.

Does this not violate the 4th?

“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”
