So it is unconstitutional for an employer to make you take a drug test? Since when is welfare a constitutional right?

No, an employer is not the Federal Government or state government, so they can do it as a condition of voluntary employment. And welfare is not a constitutional right, but in order to search you, the government has to have probable cause to believe you are doing drugs:

"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

Welfare is a voluntary agreement with the Government. You do not have to be on welfare. You do not have to apply for welfare.

The Government has already set restrictions (i.e. how much you can earn, how long you have been unemployed, etc.) on the receiving of benefits. This will be an additional, lawful restriction.

The Florida governor founded Solantic in 2001, only a few years after he resigned as the CEO of hospital giant Columbia/HCA. In January, according to the Palm Beach Post, he transferred his $62 million stake in Solantic to his wife, Ann Scott, a homemaker involved in various charitable organizations.

Among the services that Solantic offers: drug testing.

but in order to search you, the government has to have probable cause

Not true. If the government searches everyone, for example at airport screening, or sobriety checkpoints it is permissible and has been upheld by the courts. You can refuse to be searched at airport screening points, but you will be denied boarding. You can refuse to be greeted at a sobriety checkpoint, but you will lose your driver's license.

You are not very bright...or are a troll.

You write the bill that in order to obtain the benefit you have to pass the test. Nobody is FORCING anyone to take a drug test. THAT would violate the constitution.

Just like nobody is FORCING you to drive. But...in order to drive (legally) you have to PASS a test (sight and driving). Same concept.

welfare is voluntary, if you don’t want to get searched then you do not have to take welfare.
