(EDIT)Any draconian drug/alcohol based testing legislation they write, they ought to test it on THEMSELVES first - alcohol, pot, coke, heroin, cigarettes - anything. That should teach them not to draft idiotic legislation which has no merit, and will be rejected any competent judge as unconstitutional.
