IN HB1483

Requires the Office of the Secretary of Family and Social Services to establish a drug testing program by July 1, 2014 for individuals 18 and older receiving TANF (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families) benefits

Mandates all TANF applicants take a substance abuse subtle screening inventory test; those flagged as at-risk or charged with controlled substance offenses are subject to drug testing, with at least 50% of the at-risk pool tested

Individuals testing positive must enroll in a drug treatment program and pass two consecutive drug tests within four months to continue receiving benefits; failure results in a three-month ineligibility period

Permanently ineligible individuals who later become parents may regain eligibility by testing negative and submitting to ongoing random testing; children's benefits are protected through a designated protective payee system when parents are disqualified

Requires owners and operators of ATMs and point-of-sale terminals at gambling establishments, liquor stores, gun shops, and adult entertainment venues to disable access to electronic cash assistance benefits, with violations constituting a Class B infraction
