## Resource

Starting July 1, 2027, a major overhaul hits child support enforcement—aimed squarely at ending financial abuse in families. With a $186 million investment, the government is shifting to automatic wage deductions, closing loopholes that let parents dodge payments. This move protects single parents, especially those fleeing abuse, by removing reliance on risky direct payments. Child support debt will no longer block vital benefits, freeing parents from impossible choices between safety and survival. Designed to stop the weaponization of the system, this reform ensures kids get the support they need without putting custodial parents in harm’s way—marking a bold step toward justice and stability for families across the nation.
