Good Websites for Facts About Welfare Drug Testing?

Question by : Good websites for facts about welfare drug testing?
I am writing a persuasive essay for speech about “should welfare recipients be drug tested?” I am having some trouble finding good websites with actual facts as opposed to debates. Can anyone suggest some good links I could use? thanks.

Best answer:

Answer by Kenneth
“Welfare drug testing” refers only to TANF parents of TANF children (TANF = cash assistance), it is not an entitlement program.
It violates federal law to drug test for food stamps, Medicaid, WIC, other welfare programs.
The case of Florida is often cited by liberals, (with much misinformation) and a fine example of what occurs with current federal laws.
