Georgia Puts Welfare Drug Testing on Hold
(Cannabis Culture) Georgia’s new welfare drug testing law was supposed to go into effect July 1, but that didn’t happen. According to a spokesman for Gov. Nathan Deal (R), the governor still supports the law, but will hold off on implementation until a legal challenge against a similar bill next door in Florida is resolved.
The Florida law took effect last July, but was blocked by a federal judge in October. That case is expected to go before the 11th US Circuit Court of Appeals.
Civil rights and civil liberties groups in Georgia said when the law was passed they would challenge it as soon as it is implemented. But they may not have to if the federal courts strike down the Florida law.
