This amendment simply makes the language in this bill identical to the language in a bill passed earlier this year, the Drug-free Workplace Act of 1998. That bill passed the House on June 23 by a 402-to-9 vote. It makes it clear that in those drug-free workplace grants that companies obtain or that nonprofits obtain, that the employee drug testing has to be done by a drug testing laboratory certified by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, the College of American Pathologists, and each positive test result shall be reviewed by a licensed medical review officer. Those are quality concerns.
