I have been honored to contribute to these efforts. I am proud that my membership 1o this committee has had an Influence in the human service and educational goals for which I came to Congress to figit. I have been a longtime supporter of the High School Equivalency Program and the College Assistance Migrant Program. The HEP and CAMP programs are the only programs funded on the national level which recruit and serve the children of migrant and seasonal farm workers. Some of you may know that I am the son of migrant workers. There were no such student programs when I was growing up. But these programs have successfully helped migrant youth complete high school or obtain their GED. This has opened the door to continuing education op. portunities in institutions of higher education. In the 104th Congress.
