      &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Middle Class Supports:&lt;/strong&gt; For struggling Americans, TANF provides a vital support system allowing those on a fixed income to balance the responsibilities of work, education, and caring for small children. In 2003, low-income single working mothers spent as much as half of their cash income on childcare. By increasing the amount of federal aid to states to provide working mothers with additional child care resources, this amendment addresses one of the most formidable and expensive obstacles faced by low-income parents in climbing their way into the middle class.&lt;/p&gt;
