Rep. Jud McMillin (R-Brookville) has pushed for legislation the past two years requiring welfare recipients to be drug tested.
The author of the bill that would have mandated drug testing for welfare recipients say he hopes to include it in another bill this session.
The passage of right-to-work was the big news this week at the statehouse, but the legislature also passed some other prominent bills.
The Bartholomew County Sheriff‘s Department has initiated a random drug screening program for all employees of the department.
