[Serious]

Republicans Block Bill To Protect Stimulus Checks From Debt Collectors
How the hell did a company that went bankrupt in 2016 take someone's stimulus payment?

Jerri Scranton of Schenectady, New York, told HuffPost her husband was left with only $153 of his $1,200 payment last year after ITT Technical Institute snatched the rest for an unpaid debt from computer classes he’d taken in 2006.

The defunct for-profit education company sicced debt collectors on its former students even after it went bankrupt in 2016, prompting lawsuits. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau settled with the company in September, halting collection on the loans.

Scranton, 59, said it would have been one thing if the government had taken the money because her husband had owed child support or taxes, but it was especially unfair that it was garnished by a defunct entity.
