This bill is easy and politically expedient to pass -- and incredibly difficult to administer. With the human genome pretty well known globally, and genetic testing labs being set up internationally, how will anybody ever know whether or not something of them has been genetically tested, surreptitously or otherwise? The only thing it does say is that employers cannot openly ask a prospective employee to submit to genetic testing. What about urine testing? You give a sample, it comes from your body, you handle the cup, etc.
