WASHINGTON – U.S. Sens. Mark R. Warner (D-VA) and Mike Crapo (R-ID), co-chairs of the Senate Community Development Finance Caucus, issued the following statement: “When the CDFI Fund was developed 30 years ago, it was created in the form of a private-public partnership to promote access to capital in our most underserved urban and rural communities. “Since 1994, the CDFI sector has grown to over 1400 institutions, located in every state and territory in the nation — and leveraging at least $8 in private sector investment for every $1 in public funding received. “As co-chairs of the Community Development Finance Caucus, a group which has grown to 28 members, 14 Democrats and 14 Republicans, we are proud to reaffirm our bipartisan commitment to support the CDFI Fund’s mission.” https://lnkd.in/ememXhCA
We stand in community with our fellow CDFIs and allies. The CDFI Fund is a proven driver of economic opportunity across the county.
Nice, but little evidence that anyone who counts will actually stand up for you. Banks have already gotten what they want—no oversight.
How much of a tax cut for Jamie Dimon do you think it will take to do in the CDFIs?
