  "account": "The White House is exploring a more substantial proposal than President Trump's $5,000 dividend plan, according to reports. The administration is reportedly drafting a rule that would extend federal child care subsidies to married couples, allowing one parent to stay home and care for their children. The money for this benefit would come from the existing $12 billion Child Care and Development Fund. If approved, the program could provide up to $9,000 per child annually, making it a potentially more realistic windfall for families. However, the proposal faces hurdles, including potential changes before it's released and uncertain if the benefit would apply to unmarried couples or single parents.",
