Mr. President. grossly inadequate sanitation facilities cause high disease and death rates among migratory farm families whose interstate movement poses a serious health hazard for the entire Nation. This legislation would establish a 5year program designed to alleviate many serious. extensive health problems among migratory farm families. The bill authorizes an appropriation of $2.500.000 annually for the fiscal year ending June 30. 1964. and for each of 4 succeeding fiscal years. to enable the Surgeon General to make grants to States: first. that have submitted. and had approved. a State plan to provide adequate sanitation facilities for migratory farm families. second. for surveys by States that need to determine the extent of the need for such sanitation facilities. and third. for fieldsanitation projects. The funds would be allocated. under the State plans. to individual growers and other eligible entities to improve or build sanitation facilities used by migrant farmworkers and their families.
