| Abstract | Despite much publicity, hearings, legislative efforts, and other minor accomplishments in recent years, migrants are still one of the most disadvantaged and impoverished groups in the U.S. Among their problems is that they have neither the political, economic, nor other means of mitigating their problems. Some of their problems include uncertain jobs, changing work locations, seasonally induced intermittent work periods, traveling to distant areas, temporary and often inadequate housing, low earnings, fewer educational opportunities, and lower educational attainment. Their only hope of alleviating these problems remains in congressional action to: (1) change current laws which exclude farmworkers from social protections and (2) amend the Immigration and Nationality Act, thus reducing the excessive and potentially endless supply of workers from Mexico. Yet, the migrant's crucial need is for a more active and effective policy by the Federal Government to: (1) mitigate the extreme severity of migrancy and (2) determine and implement measures which will help to eliminate migrancy.
