My constituent was unable to collect child support because there was no effective way of collecting child support from that foreign national. The amendment before my colleagues would correct that circumstance. It would deny a visa or a reentry to a noncustodial parent. foreign national. that is $5.000 or more in arrears in child support. It would also deny naturalization if the person is in noncompliance with a valid child support order. Lastly. the amendment would give new authority for the service of summons and court orders at our borders for foreign nationals. Madam Chairman. this particular amendment would place a foreign national in a comparable position as we place our own citizens.
