Bill introduced in Congress — not yet passed by either chamber, and not law.

Disaster Relief for Farmworkers Act of 2024

Key claim: The bill would establish dedicated federal disaster relief and financial assistance programs for farmworkers affected by natural disasters and extreme weather.

Abstract

(S4545 · 118th Congress) Latest action (2024-06-13): Read twice and referred to the Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry.

Why this matters

The proposal would direct disaster assistance to farmworkers, making worker financial recovery a distinct focus within agricultural disaster policy. Support could indirectly affect farmers’ access to labor after disasters, but the finding establishes no effects on consumers or food prices. Introduction and committee referral alone do not make assistance available.
