RE: RIN 3064-AC50

Dear Mr. Feldman:

I am writing to request that you to withdraw your proposed changes to
the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) regulations. My organization,
Wesley Housing Development Corporation, knows firsthand that the CRA has
been instrumental
in increasing homeownership, boosting economic development, and
expanding small businesses in the nation’s low- and moderate-income
communities.

I am writing to request that you to withdraw your proposed changes to the
Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) regulations. My organization, Wesley
Housing Development Corporation of Northern Virginia, knows firsthand that
the CRA has been instrumental in increasing increasing the stock of rental
affordable housing, homeownership, boosting economic development, and
expanding small businesses in the nation’s low- and moderate-income
communities.

The Community Reinvestment Act is a critical component of the nation's
affordable housing. For the past 30 years, Wesley Housing Development
Corporation of Northern Virginia has provided rental affordable housing to
over 10,000 families. Our efforts have improved the lives of many. This
would not have been possible without the support from our financial
institution partners.

The proposed FDIC rule would exempt many of our community’s key financial
partners from the effective and productive requirements currently in
place. We oppose any increase to the threshold of what is considered to be
a small bank, and we urge the FDIC to withdraw its proposed rule.

Sincerely,

Rosana M. Montequin
