FDIC Federal Register Citations CHISPA From: admin@chispahousing.org [mailto:admin@chispahousing.org] Mr. Robert E. Feldman Dear Mr. Feldman: I am writing to request that you to withdraw your proposed changes to the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) regulations. My organization, CHISPA, 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 Community Reinvestment Act is a critical component of our community’s affordable housing and community development solutions. For the past 24 years, Community Housing Improvement Systems and Planning Association, Inc. (CHISPA) has built 1,631 homes and helped to create thousands of jobs, improving the lives of low- and moderate-income families in our community. Without strong support from our financial institution partners, this work would not have been possible. 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, Alfred Diaz-Infante, Pres./CEO
