Speech #960299295

Mr. Speaker. I am introducing a bill to clarify the Farm Labor Contractor Registration Act (FLCRA). The purpose of this bill is to focus the Labor Departments implementation of this act on the protection of migrant workers from abuses by crew leaders. That is what Congress intended in 1963 when the act was originally passed and again in 1974 when the act was substantially amended. When I say this bill would clarify the act. I am referring to interpretations by the Department of Labor of certain ambiguities in the statutes wording that have resulted in applications beyond all reasonable and rational expectations.
