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 the Community Reinvestment Act. This policy would reduce lending, investments and services in low-income communities.

Much good has come to my community as a result of CRA. Please due not limit its impact by imposing this restriction on banks with assets under $250 million.
