Subject: CRA regulation proposals for smaller and rural banks
I work in affordable housing within rural east Tennessee.
Please record my opinion that current CRA limits of $250B for lenders
required to live under CRA should remain and not be increased.
Local lenders have been very willing to invest in many of our
efforts, and it is my thought they would be less willing given any
changes to CRA as currently in place.
Thanks for your attention in this matter.
