Mr. President. I believe that the Labor Departments analysis of the issues is most compelling. The language included in House Joint Resolution 637 does more than relieve employers from burdensome overregulation. As presently written. this language goes to the main intent of the Farm Labor Contractor Act which is to protect farmworkers from exploitation by labor contractors and their agents and from those who act as farm labor contractors. For this reason. I support Senators WILLIAMS substitute amendment which addresses the concerns raised by Senator CHILES and Senator BOREN. yet protects migrant farmworkers against abuses by unscrupulous crewleaders. Mr. President.
