Good Morning.
I am the LISC Program Officer in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. This change
to the CRA that you are proposing threatens the work we are doing to
reduce poverty and increase homeownership down here. I would like to
say for the record that 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.
Sincerely,
O'Neal Furr
Program Officer
LISC Baton Rouge
