Paging the civil rights wonks in here
I have the following question: I work in Texas for a company that's based in California. Drug testing in the California offices is illegal. I've gotten popped twice since I started working for that company in July.

I'm sure there's states rights issues somewhere is there, but how is it legal for a California company to drug test me in Texas? Because I'd love to run it past the ACLU on general principle - I just want to do some recon before I start sending faxes.

1. "Licensed to do business in..."
probably covers it.

It's why Delaware state law doesn't carry over to every other state that "those" companies are licensed in.

2. Hmmm
It probably does. Bummer, though.
