Parents who owe a significant amount of child support soon could lose their ability to travel internationally as the Trump administration expands and steps up enforcement of a 30-year-old law that allows the federal government to revoke American passports until payments are made, three U.S. officials told The Associated Press.
Yes, but the threshold isn’t a law, it’s entirely up to them whose passports they revoke. Lowering it doesn’t obligate them to revoke anyone’s whose balance is above the threshold, just enables them to. They can just say, “now we’re revoking passports for some people with $300+ of child support outstanding” (so essentially any missed or even upcoming month’s payment), and then only revoke the passports for identified Democrat voters. Or they can just go by names, and target specific demographics. Name sounds “not white”? Revoked.
