Subject: Comments regarding proposed rule change to CRA
Please, please, please DO NOT undercut the Community Reinvestment Act
(CRA) with this new rule. Funds for affordable housing and community
revitalization and in short enough supply. The CRA has been an important
vehicle for channeling funding to underserved areas, particularly those
where low-income and minorities reside. CRA may not be perfect, but it
is definitely good. We cannot afford to let the perfect become the enemy
of the good.
