Subject: Community Reinvestment -- RIN 3064-AC50
Dear Sir or Madam:
The proposed rule changes would severely curtail the incentive for
banks to pursue affordable housing opportunities in thousands of
communities across the country. I urge the FDIC to withdraw its proposed
rule and to re-assume its leadership role supporting investment, lending
and services in low and moderate income communities.
