Subject: Community Reinvestment -- RIN 3064-AC50
Bethel New Life, Inc. is a twenty-five year old, faith-based community
development corporation serving the West Garfield Park and Austin
communities in Chicago, IL. We 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. Should you have
any questions, please call.
