Excerpt from A Roof Over Our Heads: Migrant and Seasonal Farmworker Housing in Idaho The Idaho Advisory Committee submits this report about housing for migrant and seasonal farmworkers in Idaho as part of its responsibility to advise the Commission about civil rights problems within the State. After careful study and consideration of several important civil rights issues in the State, the Idaho Advisory Committee identified housing conditions of these workers as one of the problems in need of most attention. While some efforts had been made over the years to address the plight of Idaho farmworkers in search of adequate shelter, the Advisory Committee noted that public and governmental concern had gradually diminished, and that, with the slackening of interest, past gains in solving the problems were being lost. A preliminary investigation revealed numerous inconsistencies and gaps in recent available data concerning migrant and seasonal farmworkers. Thus, the study sought to clearly identify and document the types of housing presently available to farmworkers, to determine whether the housing needs of this work force are being met by existing and planned supply, to ascertain whether migrant and seasonal farmworkers are receiving fair treatment under existing laws, and to better define the state of current statistical information about migrant and seasonal farmworkers. The Advisory Committee found that despite the existence of several agencies charged with ensuring fair and decent housing for migrant and seasonal farmworkers, the overall conditions in the State still are not satisfactory. Most of the governmental units, like most of the public, choose to direct their attention to their other social responsibilities, often permitting farmworker housing concerns to fall between the cracks. The Advisory Committee is pleased to note, however, that since its study was begun there has been some improvement in complaint mechanisms that previously had been little used by farmworkers or their advocates and even more rarely effective in addressing individuals problems with housing. The Advisory Committee further found that there is no comprehensive health inspection or regulation of farmworker housing. In addition, the regulation of safety conditions has been thwarted by confusing and conflicting agency jurisdictions that have resulted in uneven inspection practices and some gaps in existing regulatory coverage. The report also points up the need to revise Federal funding policies and procedures so as to make these resources more accessible to all types of borrowers and to ensure their applicability to unusual local situations.

This collection examines Latina/o immigrants and the movement of the Latin American labor force to the central states of Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Arkansas, Missouri, and Iowa. Contributors look at outside factors affecting migration, including corporate agriculture, technology, globalization, and government. They also reveal how cultural affinities like religion, strong family ties, farming, and cowboy culture attract these newcomers to the Heartland. Throughout, essayists point to how hostile neoliberal policy reforms have made it difficult for Latin American immigrants to find social and economic stability. Filled with varied and eye-opening perspectives, Latin American Migrations to the U.S. Heartland reveals how identities, economies, and geographies are changing as Latin Americans adjust to their new homes, jobs, and communities. Contributors: Linda Allegro, Tisa M. Anders, Scott Carter, Caitlin Didier, Miranda Cady Hallett, Edmund Hamann, Albert Iaroi, Errol D. Jones, Jane Juffer, László J. Kulcsár, Janelle Reeves, Jennifer F. Reynolds, Sandi Smith-Nonini, and Andrew Grant Wood.

In response to a congressional request, GAO: (1) provided information on the Commission on Civil Rights' publications; and (2) compared the published output of the present Commission to that of the former Commission. GAO found that: (1) the Commission's yearly publications output declined from a yearly average of 51 to 13; (2) of the 357 publications it reviewed, the present Commission issued only 37; and (3) the present Commission issued only 1 statutory report to Congress, compared to 27 issued by the former Commission. GAO also found that: (1) the publications the Commission issued from 1978 through 1986 were related to the Commission's general responsibilities; (2) although some of the publications addressed allegations concerning voting rights or voting fraud, the Commission did not initiate them in response to written allegations made under oath, as required by statute; and (3) the largest decline in publications was in state advisory committee reports. GAO also noted a general decline in the Commission's staff and budget.
