I believe my amendment will pave the way for giving a voice to those who have been silenced for too long and that it will hopefully correct the serious imbalance which presently exists. I believe that with a broader based membership the research priorities of landgrant institutions can be carefully examined and reassessed and that their energies and resources can be redirected. Certainly more emphasis must be placed on the ways in which to aid farm families to remain in their rural homes. to help migrant farmworkers meet their special needs and to work toward improving the overall circumstances of rural Americans. I urge our colleagues to support my amendment and to restore equity to the small. independent farmer. the farmworker. and the American consumer. I should like to read the list of the present members of the National Agricultural Research Advisory Committee.
