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 will reduce lending, investments and services in
low-income communities. I have worked to provide housing affordaable
to low and exrremely low income persons in the Washington DC inner
city for over 6 years. If it weren't for CRA as it is currently written
many more persons would be living on the streets. Plese don't change
this important tool. Thank you. rob noland, 9018 Walden Rd, Silver
