Bill > AB2195

This bill expands protections against the suspension of professional licenses for individuals with child support delinquencies, meaning overdue child support payments. Currently, the Department of Child Support Services (DCSS), which helps collect and enforce child support, is prohibited from sending information to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) that could lead to the suspension of a driver's license for individuals whose household income is at or below 70% of their county's median income. This bill would extend this protection to all types of licenses, certificates, credentials, permits, or registrations issued by various state boards that authorize someone to engage in a business, occupation, or profession, not just driver's licenses. This means that if a person is behind on child support payments but has a household income at or below the specified threshold, their ability to work in their profession or operate a motor vehicle will not be jeopardized by license suspension due to these child support arrears.
