Subject: Community Reinvestment -- RIN 3064-AC50
I oppose the FDIC's proposal to allow banks with assets above $250
million to be examined as small banks under the Community Reinvestment
Act. This policy would reduce lending, investments and services in
low-income communities.
I work for a Homebuyer Counseling Agency that assists low to moderate
income families to purchase homes in order to improve and maintain
neighborhoods in the community. We rely on lenders that provide
fair and community-oriented services and loans for our customers.
The FDIC's proposal would go against everything we are trying to
do.
Thank You.
