Speech #880282397

During this Congress. action has been taken. which I supported. to provide for the expiration of the Mexican farm labor program. The legislation now being enacted. the Farm Labor Contractor Registration Act. gives the Department of Labor the means to expand employment .opportunities for domestic workers and to assure them increased income. and at the same time to make available adequate numbers of competent employees to relieve any difficult situations which may develop as a result of the expiration of the Mexican farm labor program. In September 1962. the Migrant Health Act became law. to assist the establishment of State health facilities for migratory farm workers. Just days ago the Congress passed the Housing Act of 1964. containing additional programs designed to improve housing for such workers. And the Economic Opportunity Act. signed into law yesterday. contains generous provisions for the development of programs of education. day care services. and sanitation which will be available to migratory farm laborers.
