No, your salary cannot be garnished to pay the debt of another, UNLESS you have contracted to pay that debt. Now, that being said, any assests such as bank accounts, stocks, bonds, Certificates of Deposit, IRA's, etc. that represent mixed assetts of you and your husband can be attached for the solution of a debt, especially child support.
