Florida Governor Rick Scott Signs Bill To Randomly Drug Test State Workers

Submitted by William

This was announced after working hours Monday.

The Republican governor already has tried to enforce random drug testing through an executive order. He suspended it, though, due to a court challenge. The new law also is certain to generate a lawsuit.

Some legal scholars say random drug testing by the government violates the U.S. Constitution’s ban on unreasonable searches and seizures. That sets it apart from drug testing by private employers.
