165351-2:n:03/18/2015:JMH/mfc LRS2015-547R1 HB354 By Representative Black RFD Judiciary Rd 1 31-MAR-15 SYNOPSIS: Under existing law, the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act (UIFSA) provides uniform rules for the enforcement of family support orders. In 1996, as a condition of state eligibility for federal funding of child support enforcement, Congress mandated that each state enact the UIFSA.

That act required each state to expeditiously enact the 2008 amendments to the UIFSA during its 2015 legislative session as a condition for continued receipt of federal funds supporting state child...
