Under what constitutional authority congress has to determine what can be considered bankruptcy warranted?
Why can you file bankruptcy on all types of debt, but student loans and childsupport. If childsupport is in the arrear it is debt. If student loans are owed it is debt. So how can congress pick and choose what is consider bankruptcy warranted? This is a constitutional question. Can someone give me examples also for or against?
It’s Article I of the constitution. “All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.”
Congress has the power to pass laws. The Bankruptcy Code is one example of those legislative powers.
