 CDVCA - Community Reinvestment Act (CRA)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
In 1977, Congress passed the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA), which requires regulated financial institutions to help meet the credit needs of all communities in the service area in which they are chartered to operate.
Without the CRA, many financial institutions would discontinue or drastically reduce the level of investment or services they provide to low- and moderate-income communities.
Over the past year, the CRA has come under attack as regulators have proposed changes to CRA regulations that CDVCA believes would significantly decrease the level of bank investments going to low-income communities.

 The War on CRA: CRA Weakened, by Matthew Lee

As Sen. Gramm said during the final debate: under the bill, if the applicant's banks are rated Satisfactory for CRA, approval of their acquisitions is automatic.
In exchange for this illusory expansion of CRA, Clinton agreed to two of Senator Gramm's main demands: fewer CRA examination for banks with assets below $250 million and the "CRA Sunshine" proposal.
