Re: Preserving the Community Reinvestment Act Mr. Robert E. Feldman Executive Secretary Attention: Comments/Legal ESS Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation 550 17th Street NW Washington, DC 20429 Dear Mr. Feldman: I urge you to withdraw the FDIC’s rule proposal that would allow midsize banks to pursue only one of the three important community development activities they are now required to undertake: lending, investment, and services. This is a mistake because it would mean a reduction in support for the essential work of CDFIs, resulting in fewer jobs, fewer affordable homes, and fewer community services. Yours Sincerely, Barbara Ryan
