"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." Presently, banks are major contributors to the local economy and are seen as an avenue for new small business ventures. Banks are a symbol of respect and durability, the community needs them to be always present involved in the communities they serve. This is social justice. Thank you.
