I'm all for it, but we'll see if it sticks.

"Florida is not the first state to pass such legislation. Michigan passed a similar law that the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals found unconstitutional in 2003 since it violated the U.S. Fourth Amendment, which protects citizens against unreasonable search. "

also, the effects of the bill are rather limited:
"Those who fail the required drug testing may designate another individual to receive the benefits on behalf of their children."
