This kind of vital assistance will continue under my amendment. The Secretary of Labor. with the Federal partnership. will be able to provide States. communities. and workers with critical assistance when there is a mass layoff. base closing. or natural disaster. The need for this assistance is broadly recognized. Just last week. the National Governors Association strongly endorsed this concept. This amendment also ensures that migrant farmworkers continue to receive training services. There could not be a needier population. yet. because they move so much. they are difficult to serve. This amendment provides the Secretary with funds to assist these workers. as he currently does.
