Could you mean 1962?

Walter Mondale, (1970) then Chair of the Senate committee added an
amendment to the 1970 passage of the Migrant Health Act - which passed
in MArch of 1970, it may have been preceeded or a change to the 1962
act - but I am finding no reference to a 1970 Act  -- I was looking
for the language of the 1970 act specifically authorizing an $11M
allocation to the department of HEW for migrant Health care in
California.

Apparently that was the 91st Congress:

"Migrant and seasonal farmworker powerlessness: Hearings before the
Subcommittee on Migratory Labor of the Committee on Labor and Public
Welfare, Senate, 91st Cong., 1st and 2nd Sess. (1970-71). (16 volumes
of hearings produced under the direction of Senator Walter Mondale)"

Unfortunately, the Senate's online database goes back only to the 93rd Congress.
