On Childcare: Trump's plan allows American families to exclude childcare costs from taxable income, deriding it as the single-biggest expense for most families.
Current situation: The U.S. has retained the unsavory distinction of being the third-most expensive for childcare among 34 countries, according to 2012 data from the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development. Those bills have proven to outpace rent and tuition costs in most states, often threatening to derail parents' plans around housing and employment.
Clinton's take: Her proposal on childcare includes tax relief, but is more focused on government support and broader investments in early childhood education, while pledging to ensure that no family has to spend more than 10 percent of income on high-quality care.
On Regulation: Trump proposes a moratorium on new agency regulations, and said he'll eliminate ones deemed unnecessary. Trump has previously said he intends to repeal the Dodd-Frank Act, sweeping bank reforms that put new capital requirements on big banks and banned proprietary trading in the wake of the financial crisis.
Current situation: Most Dodd-Frank rules are near completion or final.
Clinton's take: Clinton has promised to reign in Wall Street by enforcing Dodd-Frank and vetoing any legislation that weakens it, as well as possibly looking at other regulation
