While I support the concept behind the Legal Services Corporation. I believe many legal services attorneys hiave overstepped their authority in the past few years and forced many good farmers to go bankrupt and lose their farms. For many. many yearS. there has been a close working relationship between farmers in my district and the migrant workers they employ. When the Migrant and Seasonal Worker Protection Act became law. the farmers tried their best to comply with the law. Unfortunately. not every farmer knew every provision of the law and minor infractions resulted in court cases brought against farmers by attorneys of Legal Services Corporation grantees. These are not. in most instances. flagrant violations.
