RE: RIN 3064-AC50
Dear Mr. Feldman:
I am writing to request that you to withdraw your proposed changes to
the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) regulations. My organization,
Southeast Rural Community Assistance Project, Inc., knows firsthand that
the CRA has been instrumental in increasing homeownership, boosting
economic development, and expanding small businesses in the nation’s
low- and moderate-income communities.
The
proposed FDIC rule would exempt many of our community’s key
financial partners from the effective and productive requirements
currently in place. We oppose any increase to the threshold of what
is considered to be a small bank,and we urge the FDIC withdraw its
proposed rule Sincerely,
Bonnie Cranmer
