Subject: Community Reinvestment -- RIN 3064-AC50
It is imperative that FDIC maintain all structures, regulations,
requirements and incentives to maintain or increase lending, investments
and services in low-income communities. Therefore, I strongly oppose the
FDIC's proposal to allow banks with assets above $250 million to be
examined as small banks under the Community Reinvestment Act.
