Subject: Community Reinvestment -- RIN 3064-AC50
Dear Sir or Madam:
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.
Several such communities are located in the Capitol Region of Connecticut,
which serves the City of Hartford and the 28 surrounding suburban and rural
communities.
Thank you for your consideration of these comments.
