Subject: Opposition to FDIC,s proposal
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 will reduce lending, investments and services in low
and moderate income communities.Banks with assets between $250,000 and
$1 Billion should undergo a full CRA examination.
