Subject: Community Reinvestment -- RIN 3064-AC50

I oppose the FDIC's proposal to allow banks with assets above $250 million to be examined as small banks under CRA. This policy would negatively impact investments in the low-income communities where our organization works, and other similar communities around the country.
