Subject: Community Reinvestment -- RIN 3064-AC50
Importance: High
To whom it may concern:
I strongly 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. The strength of our economy and our country
rests on our ability to address market failures and hold institutions
accountable to ensuring all Americans have opportunities to invest
and live in a variety of communities. I urge the FDIC to keep CRA intact
and viable.
