This is Congressman Poliquins first bill signed into law. Congressman Poliquin released the following statement: I am very pleased that the language from my critical and bipartisan bill, the Child Support Assistance Act, was signed into law to stand up for children and families who are owed their support money, said Congressman Poliquin. My legislation will help our state and local support enforcement agencies aid families in collecting child support payments from delinquent parents. This is not a partisan issue, this is about our kids and ensuring they get the money theyre rightly owed. Chairman Jeb Hensarling of the House Financial Services Committee also released the following statement on the Congressmans language being signed into law: I am proud to work with Congressman Poliquin to get this important legislation signed into law, said Chairman Hensarling. Mr. Poliquins language will help thousands of families across the country, and I am pleased that it was officially adopted. Note: Congressman Poliquins language in the Surface Transportation Reauthorization and Reform Act of 2015 will amend the FCRA to permit enforcement agencies to obtain consumer reports on delinquent parents in order to enforce child support payments, in a more timely manner, without giving a delinquent parent an opportunity to avoid child support payments. This bill will also expressly allow the enforcement agency to set an appropriate amount for child support payments and adjust the level as needed. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
