AG Paxton’s Child Support Division Sets New Nationwide Record by Collecting $4.378 Billion in Child Support
“I’m immensely proud of the hard work and dedication of our Child Support Division to improve the lives of Texas children and ensure that children receive the support they need and deserve,” Attorney General Paxton said. “This success is particularly remarkable in light of the challenges the division faced as a result of Hurricane Harvey. Courts in affected areas were shut down completely for prolonged amounts of time, but that didn’t stop the hard-working men and women of the Child Support Division from achieving another record-setting year in collections.”
