The recent article regarding only six House of Representative members submitting to a drug test sends a very bad image on the lower house of the CNMI Legislature.<\/p>\n
If the members of this chamber have nothing to hide then why are they not getting a drug test.<\/p>\n
Certainty, the system is not fair because all government employees or prospective employees must go through a drug test, why in the world doesn\u2019t this requirement apply to these elected officials.<\/p>\n
If they were really honest and have nothing to hide then they should pass a law requiring all elected officials to pass a drug test before they are sworn into office or receive a penny of their salary.<\/p>\n
The CNMI Legislature is a joke and they are sending a bad message to the children of this community. To the children of the CNMI, go ahead and use illegal drugs because as long as you are a senator or congressman\/congresswoman you don\u2019t need to take a drug test.<\/p>\n
