Kast Impulsa Reforma De La Constitución De Chile Para Someter a Funcionarios a Exámenes De Drogas
- President Jose Antonio Kast signed a constitutional reform proposal mandating mandatory drug testing for ministers, lawmakers, and regional leaders to combat organized crime influence.
- The proposal emerges three days after former Hacienda official Juan Pablo Rodriguez resigned following a positive drug test, which he claimed was 'un error' that does not reflect his reality.
- Officials must undergo testing at the start of their functions and periodically thereafter, with all results made public and verified through scientific methods to prevent political misuse, Kast stated from the Palacio de La Moneda.
- The proposal now moves to the Congreso for debate, where legislators must decide whether to approve the measure as part of Kast's broader strategy to combat transnational crime.
- Although the reform applies to ministers, lawmakers, and regional officials, it explicitly excludes the President of the Republic and judges, focusing enforcement on roles most vulnerable to organized crime influence.

The initiative determines the loss of office if drug use is checked. The project was presented by Kast on Monday, 4 days after the departure of the Undersecretary of the Treasury for that reason. The text does not mention that the disclosure of the results should occur only after a counter-sample (only so can be proved if there was consumption). That vacuum - key in Rodríguez's resignation- remains pending for the debate of the legal text. The n…
