I would be willing to join in making the Williams bill apply here and to all agricultural workers generally. But here we have before us the sugar industry. and I think we ought to move on that because we have jurisdiction over it. and then move on the rest when we can. I am disappointed that the Senator from Louisiana is satisfied that it would be fairer to modify the amendment to so provide. but that he still would vote against it. When I was a small boy. my family and I followed the cotton harvest as migrant workers. In West Texas we lived in abandoned houses and outside. The whole family picked cotton for a living.
