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 am the benefit of such a community made possible by Banks and
Northwest Regional Facilitators. I not only work for them, but now
own my own home through their HomeStarts first-time homeownership
program. It was all made possible by such funding. This proposal
would harm future participants in HomeStarts and other programs like
it.
Thank you for considering this comment.
