Yes, but the threshold isn't a law, it's entirely up to them whose passports they revoke. Lowering it doesn't obligate them to revoke anyone's whose balance is above the threshold, just enables them to. They can just say, "now we're revoking passports for some people with $300+ of child support outstanding" (so essentially any missed or even upcoming month's payment), and then only revoke the passports for identified Democrat voters. Or they can just go by names, and target specific demographics. Name sounds "not white"? Revoked.
