Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That section 203(a) of part II of the Interstate Commerce Act, as amended (49 U.S.C. 303 (a)), is further amended by adding at the end thereof the following new subsections reading as follows: (22) The term 'carrier of migrant workers by motor vehicle' means any person, including any 'contract carrier by motor vehicle', but not including any 'common carrier by motor vehicle', who or which transports in interstate or foreign commerce at any one time three or more migrant workers to or from their employment by any motor vehicle other than a passenger automobile or station wagon, except migrant workers transporting themselves or their immediate families. "(23) The term 'migrant worker' means any individual proceeding to or returning from employment in agriculture as defined in section 3 (f) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended (29 U.S.C. 203 (f)), or section 3121(g) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 (26 U.S.C. 3121 (g)).

Such requirements shall apply to any such carrier only in the case of transportation of any migrant worker for a total distance of more than seventy-five miles, and then only if such transportation is across the boundary line of any State, the District of Columbia, or Territory of the United States, or a foreign country. When such requirements are established, the term 'motor carrier' shall be construed to include carriers of migrant workers by motor vehicle in the administration of sections 204(c); 205; 220; 221; 222 (a), (b), (d), (f) and (g); and 224."
