It is true that negotiations were held between many of the agricultural organizations and others involved in this legislation. but it is also true that those LTE 19567 negotiations broke down. not on matters of detail with regard to the bill which has since been offered by the Senator from New York. but really in terms of differences in philosophy. The approach is totally different. The legislation offered by the Senator from New York actually expands in some way the definition of farm labor contractor. It exempts organizations of organized labor from any kind of coverage. It does not deal with this thorny problem of the definition of migrant employee. migrant worker. There are many areas of philosophical disagreement between those in the agricultural community and those who have argued on the other side of this matter. I would doubt that negotiations as philosophically apart as the two sides started could succeed on this matter.
