FDIC Federal Register Citations Grand Rapids Community Foundation From: Laura Craft [mailto:LCraft@grfoundation.org] 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. CRA has had a significant impact on bank re-investment in low-income communities in Grand Rapids, increasing opportunity for low-income families to purchase homes and improve them. This has a tremendous impact on investment in neighborhood revitalization and helping people to move out of poverty. CRA is a powerful economic development tool and should continue for banks of all asset sizes. Laurie Craft
