NORML's Smoke the Vote

F Arthur Orr (R - AL) NO MEDICAL USE

“If you want to use drugs and you want the taxpayers to pick up the tab on your health care, if this bill passes, forget about it,” said Senator Orr. “If I’m going to use illegal drugs that are going to hurt myself, why ask taxpayers to fund my medical care?” https://www.themaven.net/theweedblog/advocacy/alabama-lawmakers-propose-drug-testing-medicaid-recipients-8-e8FTA0HUOr-fZ7VUW4Fw/

Comments

"In April, SB 162, introduced by Sen. Arthur Orr, passed the Alabama Senate. It now awaits action in the House Public Safety and Homeland Security Committee. This bill would declare anyone with five nanograms of THC per milliliter in their blood guilty of driving under the influence — regardless of whether the person was actually impaired!"
