Nearly 2 dozen states consider plans to drug test welfare recipients as issue arises in GOP campaign Associated Press — February 25, 2012 foxnews.com (My note: There's not a thing in the world unconstitutional about this. However, "mandatory" is a bad choice of words. No one would be forced to be tested; you just don't get the money if you don't.) CHEYENNE, Wyo. – Conservatives who say welfare recipients should have to pass a drug test to receive government assistance have momentum on their side. I would bet Wyoming, Montana and Idaho are on that list. I don't know why random drug testing, for a specific purpose/benefit, would not be legal. The military has required the tests for decades.
