Subject: Community Reinvestment -- RIN 3064-AC50

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. This policy would reduce lending, investments and services in low-income communities. It is these investments that have supported the positive changes going on in many neighborhoods.
