Respecting the relationship between workers’ compensation benefits and the
benefits available under the Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker
Protection Act.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
MAY 25, 1995
Mr. GOODLING (for himself, Mr. FAZIO of California, Mr. BALLENGER, Mr.
ANDREWS, Mr. FAWELL, Mr. STENHOLM, Mr. HOEKSTRA, Mrs.
THURMAN, Mr. FUNDERBURK, and Mr. DOOLEY) introduced the follow-
ing bill; which was referred to the Committee on Economic and Edu-
cational Opportunities
A BILL
Respecting the relationship between workers’ compensation
benefits and the benefits available under the Migrant
and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. FINDINGS.
The Congress finds that—
(1) the fundamental premise of the workers’
compensation system, which is the exclusivity of
workers’ compensation for workplace injuries as an
alternative to a fault-based system relying on costly
and lengthy litigation in the courts, must be pre-
served,
(2) this premise was threatened by the decision
in 1990 of the United States Supreme Court in
Adams Fruit Co. Inc. v. Barrett, 494 U.S. 638,
which held that migrant and seasonal farmworkers
could bring a private right of action for certain job-
related injuries under the Migrant and Seasonal Ag-
ricultural Worker Protection Act even where the em-
ployer has provided workers’ compensation coverage
of such farmworkers,
(3) the Adams Fruit decision did not reflect the
intent of the Congress when it enacted the Migrant
and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act in
1982,
(4) the Adams Fruit decision singles out agri-
cultural employers as the only employers in America
who can be subjected to lawsuits as a result of work-
place injuries even where they have provided work-
ers’ compensation to their employees,
(5) Congress expressed its disapproval of the
Adams Fruit decision in Public Law 102–392 by
overturning the decision until July 6, 1993, and
(6) it is essential that the exclusivity of work-
ers’ compensation be permanently restored.
SEC. 2. WORKERS’ COMPENSATION.
(a) AMENDMENT.—Section 504 of the Migrant and
Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act (29 U.S.C.
1854) is amended by adding at the end thereof the follow-
ing new subsection:
‘‘(d)(1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Act, where a State workers’ compensation law is applicable
and coverage is provided for a migrant or seasonal agricul-
tural worker, the workers’ compensation benefits shall be
the exclusive remedy for loss of such worker under this
Act in the case of bodily injury or death.
‘‘(2) The exclusive remedy prescribed by paragraph
(1) precludes the recovery under subsection (c) of actual
damages for loss from an injury or death but does not
preclude recovery under subsection (c) for statutory dam-
ages or an injunction.’’.
(b) EFFECTIVE DATE.—The amendment made by
subsection (a) shall apply to all cases in which a final judg-
ment has not been entered.
