More jobs will be banned in the fall. These include most construction, manufacturing and food processing jobs. Summer Work Travel students will also not be allowed to work in most mining and agricultural jobs.
Daniel Costa at the Economic Policy Institute in Washington welcomed the new limits on jobs that the students can fill.
He also praised a requirement that employers only fill temporary or seasonal jobs with Summer Work Travel students. He noted that some employers have continually hired new student workers to avoid having to hire regular full-time employees.
Jacob Horwitz is lead organizer for the National Guestworker Alliance, the group that organized the strike in Palmyra.
He says the State Department's changes will help return the program to its original purpose as a cultural exchange program.美国国务院现已禁止仓库或包装工厂雇佣参加暑期打工旅游项目的学生。同时，他们的工作时间也不能被安排在晚上10点到早上6点之间。
今年秋天还会禁止更多领域的工作，包括大多数建筑、生产和食品加工工作。暑期打工旅游项目学生还不允许参加大多数采矿和农业工作。
华盛顿经济政策研究所的丹尼尔·科斯塔对这些学生可工作领域的新限制表示欢迎。
他还赞扬了雇主们只为暑期打工旅游项目学生提供临时性或季节性工作的要求。他指出，一些雇主不断雇佣新的学生来避免雇佣正式的全职员工。
雅各布·霍维茨是全美外来工联盟的主要发起人，该联盟曾组织过巴尔米拉罢工。
他称，国务院的这些改革举措将有助于该项目回归其文化交流的初衷。
