Agriculture. Conservation. and Trade Act of 1990 is the expansion of the existing emergency grant program to assist lowincome farmworkers. Currently. the farm bill provides up to $20 million to public agencies and nonprofit organizations to provide assistance grants to migrant workers. My bill provides for an additional $10 million and an expansion to include permanent farmworkers and packinghouse laborers in areas declared as emergencies. This provision would help to insure that the Government not only helps the farmers and businesses. but takes care to address the needs of those who have a harder time securing their livelihood outside of farmrelated labor.
