- This bill would have assisted homeowners in preventing the loss of their homes due to mortgage foreclosure. After the Fed handed out trillions in low mortgage rate loans to high risk taking financial institutions - S.61 was shot down in congress before it ever made it to the floor. Big finance YES - middle class homeowner - NO. Overall Mr Walsh received over $125,000 from Securities & Investment Firms and Insurance companies - his largest donors. For a Tea Party populist, he sure likes the banks and the insurance companies.
- Here's more on S.61

- The story about his child support issues are well known. Mr Walsh claims that he had low income and had temporary housing stewardship of one the children during the disputed time. These are facts which can be easily verified. Did Mr Walsh have a court order to pay - if so did he make the payments? Apparently he was ordered and did not pay. Mr Walsh can (and is likely) making the argument that the payments shouldn't have been as high as they were because of the issues above detailed - he might be right in that regard. Mr Walsh states that over $2K a month is being automatically garnished from his account (sad that a sitting US congressman has to be made to pay support via garnishment). It appears that there was a time that he was either ordered to pay or did not sufficiently have enough overnights to be considered shared custodial and was assessed the known $117K in arrears. Also, there seems to be at least once where he failed to appear at a hearing. It appears that he is in process of trying to lower that assessed figure (if he hasn't already) while paying off the figure he owes. Usually, when a non-custodial parent is in arrears a judge will increase the monthly in attempt to accelerate repayment.
- In any event, $117K is a rather large figure to be in arrears for. One has to surmise that for some period of time Mr Walsh did not make support payments to his ex-wife. Even giving him the benefit of the doubt the period of time in which he failed to pay support could probably be measured in years.
- If he got a verbal agreement with his ex-wife over support - then it's his own fault for not getting the agreement signed and filed with the court. Also if he did make payments outside a state disbursement unit and failed to save the cancelled checks - that's also a measure of irresponsibility.
- Any responsible father knows that child support must be paid if you are not the custodial parent. Whether or not you get along with the mother is not a consideration. I think constituents can reasonably come to the conclusion that at least for some extended period of time Joe Walsh did not make child support payments and was a deadbeat dad - verbal agreement or no.
