House Committee Introduces a Proposal Regarding Driver Saliva Testing
MONTPELIER – The proposal introduced by the house committee to legalize the sale of recreational marijuana differs from the demands of the Scott administration on the saliva test for drivers. Marijuana tax and regulate bill, S.54 for this year was approved by the House Committee on Government Operations. The theme of the bill is based on roadway safety which Governor Phil Scott highlighted on a large scale.
With some restrictions, the bill would allow enforcement officers to take saliva samples from drivers if they suspect of them being impaired. The bill is not expected to get thumbs up from the governor and the Senate is less likely to support it. It focuses on receiving support from municipalities to allow the opening of marijuana shops in the town. Hence, businesses could open marijuana stores with the implementation of this bill.
The legislation allows police officers to take saliva tests on the roads but they could only be able to administer it at the police department. However, a search warrant issued from a judge is required to carry out this saliva testing. In order to increase roadside safety, the bill authorizes police authority to impose a penalty on people for not wearing a seatbelt. The governor, Phil Scott has refused to support the commercial marijuana sales legislation unless saliva testing is included in it. According to him, legalizing marijuana sales without saliva testing on the roadside would lead to an increase in the cases of impaired driving. Many drivers today are successfully able to pass saliva test, and the government is not liking this fact at all.
In addition, democrats are also differing from the opinion of Gov. Scott to take saliva test on the road. They said that even if drivers pass the test, still, there is no way to make a conclusion about the impairment of drivers at that moment. The governor demanded that police officers should be authorized to take drug saliva test without a warrant. Also, he expressed his demand for more control over Marijuana regulatory board.

Turkish Textile Giant Sun Textile Solution Proposal for Drought
While the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations (UN) are seeking solutions to combat drought through various projects, Ekoten Textile, a subsidiary of Turkey’s textile giant Sun Textile, has developed a groundbreaking project in collaboration with a technology startup to minimize the intensive water consumption in the textile industry. This pioneering project, the first of its kind globally, will enable the recycling and reuse of up to 90% of the water used in textile production.
Drought is one of the most pressing issues facing the world today. According to WHO data, 40% of the global population is struggling with water scarcity. By 2030, up to 700 million people could be forced to migrate due to drought. The unconscious use of water in global production processes plays a significant role in the rapid depletion of clean water resources.
The textile industry is one of the sectors with the highest water consumption. In Turkey, while the food industry consumes 22% of the water used for industrial purposes, the textile sector follows closely with 18%. For instance, producing an average of 40 tons of products daily requires 2,500 tons of water, equivalent to the daily water consumption of approximately 10,000 people.
CLEAN WATER RESOURCES FOR HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE EVERY DAY!
In textile production, where clean water resources are heavily consumed, the innovative success of the Turkish company stands out as a global best practice. This initiative will shape the future of the industry. The wastewater recycling project, developed through intensive R&D efforts, will ensure that over 90% of the required water is sourced from recycled supplies.
The reuse of wastewater in production will transform the fate of countries operating in the textile sector. By preventing the use of clean water resources for textile production, this project will free up clean water sources that can meet the daily needs of hundreds of thousands of people.
R&D ACTIVITIES IN 38 COUNTRIES WITH 380 PARTNERS!
Sun Textile places great emphasis on R&D activities, conducting research and development efforts with 380 partners across 38 countries. Sun Textile and its subsidiary Ekoten Textile export nearly 90% of their production, solidifying their identity as a leading exporter. The company ships products to numerous destinations worldwide, including European countries, the UK, and the US. Sun Textile, the leading ready-to-wear exporter in the Aegean Region, achieved a consolidated turnover of 250 million euros in the third quarter of 2024, continuing its active growth trajectory.
OFFERING CUSTOM DESIGNS TO CUSTOMERS
Sun Textile provides its own designed collections to leading brands in Europe and the UK. Ekoten Textile, its subsidiary, is among the most respected knitted fabric manufacturers in Turkey and Europe.
With a dedicated sales team for each major customer group and five design offices in three different countries, Sun Textile creates designs tailored to its customers’ needs. Its largest clients include the Inditex Group, H&M, Jimmy Key, Tesco, Kiabi, Marks & Spencer, and Next.
Sun Textile also extends its sustainability approach to social responsibility, notably for its high ratio of female employees. The company, which went public in 2022, is also listed in dividend indexes.
