Members of the Texas Legislature consistently introduce legislation intended to require recipients of TANF and unemployment benefits to pass a drug test; such a bill was introduced in the legislative session of 2019 and 2021. Here is a video of Rick Perry's speech on the topic in 2012. Should recipients of such social welfare programs have to pass a drug test to qualify and receive benefits from those programs? Please explain your reasoning. Are there specific programs that should require such testing and others that should be exempt from such testing? Please explain your reasoning.
