Visit the United States Department of Labor website at http://www.dol.gov and look up the rules concerning garnishment of wages. For this activity, you will describe your state’s laws on garnishments. In a separate paragraph, explain why you think that garnishments are necessary or what alternatives to garnishments may be available. Is there a priority that is followed concerning wage attachments? Which wages are attached first? Are any wages exempt? If so, which ones and why? Explain any differences between your state laws and the DOL compliance information.
