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,
Families Moving Forward, 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.

We are a relatively small, faith-based organization in a dynamic
metropolitan area. Although the large banking organizations in our area
(Wells Fargo, US Bank) are very committed to community redevelopment, the
many, new, smaller niche banks are not. Raising the threshold for CRA
compliance is definitely going in the wrong direction for these new
institutions.

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 withdraw its
proposed rule Sincerely,

Leslie M. Frost
