This measure, which I co-sponsored, would require all welfare applicants to be drug tested before receiving benefits. Critics of the bill argue that the program would be too costly to implement but my the majority of colleagues and I predict a net savings will be realized due to the number of people disqualified.
HB2678 will be heard in the House Appropriations committee this Wednesday.

You ROCK Trish!!
Now, just include an affadavit of attendance to be completed by the school their kids attend, requiring that their kid have satisfactory attendance.
Don't know if that would be possible or not, but it might help make sure there isn't ONE MORE person on public assistance in a few years.
