Answer:

What were the two primary accomplishments of Chavez and the United Farm Workers in the 1960s and 70s

Step-by-step explanation:

The UFW and Chávez had many accomplishments - establishing minimum wage standards, wage contracts, safer working conditions, child labor reform, and advancement in civil rights for Chicanos and other farm workers. Chávez's dedication to farm workers and civil rights grew out of influential childhood experiences.

( Chavez founded the National Farm Workers Association (later the United Farm Workers of America) and won important victories to raise pay and improve working conditions for farm workers in the late 1960s and 1970s)
