SPAG Discusses Funding for Farmworker Plans and Federal Oversight

Judge Shaw urged withholding services rather than blocking migrant aid programs. A letter will be sent to President Nixon, Vice President Agnew, and Texas lawmakers requesting scrutiny of the Llano Estacado Farm Workers project based in Tahoka and its $300,000 in federal grants amid concerns of duplicative services and costs.
