Child Support payments from parents receiving SSI Benefits

My petition is to get the government to enforce non-custodial parents who are receiving SSI benefits and who owe child support to be enforced to pay they court ordered support.

Why is this important?

My petition is get better laws against deadbeat parents who receive SSI benefits from the government. My son's father owes more that $30,000.00 in back child support, but the state that I live in will not persue him or enforce him to pay because he receives SSI benefits. Why is the government allowing this? Why should parents getting benefits not have to take care of their responsibilities?
