Amend Senate File 2336 as follows:
   1.  Page 78, after line 24 by inserting: 
   <Sec. ___.  NEW SECTION.  239B.2C  Substance abuse screening.
   1.  For the purposes of this section, unless the context otherwise requires, “substance abuse screening program” or “screening program” means the substance abuse screening program administered pursuant to this section.
   2.  The substance abuse screening program requirements of this section apply to the following applicants for assistance under this chapter:
   a.  Each adult parent, guardian, or specified relative who is included in the applicant family, including both parents of a two-parent family, or an individual who may be exempt from work activity requirements due to the age of the youngest child or who may be exempt from work activity requirements under the PROMISE JOBS program.
   b.  A minor parent who is not required to live with a parent, guardian, or other adult caretaker in accordance with this chapter.
   3.  As a condition of eligibility for an applicant who is subject to this section to participate in the family investment program, the applicant shall, if not otherwise prohibited by state or federal law, agree to participate in the substance abuse screening program.
   4.  The department shall design and implement a substance abuse screening program for applicants who are subject to this section. To the extent authorized under applicable federal requirements, the screening program shall include but is not limited to all of the following elements:
   a.  Random drug testing of a percentage of the applicants. Such testing shall be conducted on an applicant’s blood or urine for the presence of a controlled substance. However, if the information available in regard to a specific applicant indicates there is a strong likelihood that the applicant is using a controlled substance, such testing may be required.
   b.  Assure each applicant being drug tested a reasonable degree of dignity while producing and submitting a sample for drug testing, consistent with the department’s need to ensure the reliability of the sample.
   c.  The results of the blood or urine testing shall not be admissible in any criminal proceeding without the consent of the person subject to the testing.
   d.  Provision for the cost of the blood or urine testing under the screening program to be paid by the applicant.
   e.  Provide any applicant who tests positive in a drug test under the screening program with a list of licensed substance abuse treatment programs available in the area in which the applicant resides. Neither the department nor the state is not responsible for providing or paying for substance abuse treatment as part of the screening conducted under this section.
   f.  An applicant with a positive drug test result who is denied assistance under this chapter may reapply for assistance at any time if the individual can document the successful completion of a licensed substance abuse treatment program. An applicant who has met the requirements of this paragraph and reapplies for assistance must also pass a drug test under the screening program in order for the application to be approved. Any drug test conducted while the individual is undergoing substance abuse treatment must meet the requirements for a drug test under the screening program. The cost of any drug testing or substance abuse treatment provided under this subsection shall be the responsibility of the individual being tested or receiving treatment.
   g.  Other design, operation, and standards provisions adopted in rule to ensure the screening program is implemented in a fair and economical manner.
   5.  An adult applicant is not eligible to participate in the family investment program if any of the following is applicable:
   a.  The applicant does not agree to participate in the substance abuse screening program.
   b.  The applicant tests positive in a blood or urine drug test administered under the screening program for the presence of either of the following:
   (1)  A substance listed in schedule I under section 124.204.
   (2)  A substance listed in schedule II, III, or IV under chapter 124 that was not prescribed for the applicant or participant.
   6.  If an applicant parent is deemed ineligible for assistance as a result of having a positive test result from a drug test conducted under the screening program, all of the following apply:
   a.  The eligibility of the applicant’s dependent child for assistance is not affected.
   b.  An appropriate protective payee shall be designated to receive assistance on behalf of the dependent child. The applicant parent may choose to designate an individual as the protective payee. The individual designated by the applicant parent as the protective payee must be a specified relative or other immediate family member unless such family member is not available or the family member declines the designation. In which case another individual, approved by the department, shall be designated as the protective payee. The individual must also participate in the screening program before being approved to be the protective payee. If the designated individual has a positive test result, the designated individual shall be ineligible to be the protective payee.
   7.  The department shall adopt rules to implement this section.>
   2.  By renumbering as necessary.
