Clarifying Commercial Real Estate Loans (Sec. 2) This bill amends the Federal Deposit Insurance Act to specify that a federal banking agency may not subject a depository institution to higher capital standards with respect to a high-volatility commercial real-estate (HVCRE) exposure unless the exposure is an HVCRE acquisition, development, or construction (ADC) loan. An HVCRE ADC loan is a one that: (1) is secured by land or improved real property; (2) has the purpose of providing financing to acquire, develop, or improve the real property such that the property becomes income-producing; and (3) is dependent upon future income or sales proceeds from, or refinancing of, the real property for the repayment of the loan. An HVCRE ADC loan does not include financing for a one- to four-family residential property, agricultural land, real property that would qualify as an investment in community development, existing income-producing real property secured by a mortgage, or certain commercial real-property projects. Furthermore, such a loan does not include any loan made prior to January 1, 2015. A depository institution may reclassify a loan as a non-HVCRE ADC loan if the depository institution is satisfied that: (1) the acquisition, development, or improvement of real property being financed by the loan is complete; and (2) the cash flow being generated by the real property is sufficient to support the debt service and expenses of the real property.

Oppose HR 3229 would make it easier for predatory high-cost lenders to use rent-a-bank arrangements to evade state usury laws that limit high interest rates. Oppose HR 3948 which would prevent the SEC from fully investigating high-frequency trading practices that could crash markets. Oppose HR 3911 which would significantly weaken oversight of the big rating agencies who prior to the financial crisis certified trillions of dollars of worthless mortgage-backed securities as safe for investors. Oppose HR 1699 which would remove key consumer protections for buyers of manufactured homes, rendering them more vulnerable to predatory lending. Oppose HR 2706 which would place major new barriers on the ability of banking regulators to advise financial institutions of warning signs that their customers are engaged in money laundering, illegal activity, or fraudulent practices that give scammers access to bank accounts. Oppose HR 2954 which would nearly quadruple the number of banks exempted from key mortgage disclosures designed to detect predatory and discriminatory lending, leading to 5,400 banks being exempted as well as an additional 487 non-banks. Oppose HR 2201 which would create a new class of microcap securities that could be traded without any oversight from the Securities and Exchange Commission or state regulators - securities that would almost certainly become a haven for fraud. Oppose HR 2121 and HR 2148 which micromanage regulators by forcing them to grant significant new exemptions from rules designed to prevent risky banking and lending practices. Support Janet Yellens re-appointment as Chair of the Federal Reserve.

Strengthen the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) by: expanding CRA to non-banks; designate areas outside of branch networks with high volumes of loans as assessment areas; retain and do not in any way reduce the Intermediate Small Bank category; encourage large banks to be more efficient and devote more staff resources for CRA exams; standardize CRA exam methodology and format; execute merger application process; credit should be given for community development loans and investments outside assessment areas. Oppose H.J.Res. 122, which uses the Congressional Review Act to nullify the CFPBs proposed payday lending rule. Support Government Sponsored Enterprise (GSE) legislation which promotes homeownership among low and moderate income Americans and Americans of color Oppose H.R. 3299, the Protecting Consumers' Access to Credit Act of 2017, which allows smaller institutions to skirt usury limits enacted by states to protect consumers from egregious profit seekers by using federal charters, hoping to make money from those who can often least afford it.

HR 10: Financial CHOICE Act of 2017 - The bill amends the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

In addition, the bill modifies provisions related to the Securities and Exchange Commission's managerial structure and enforcement authority; eliminates the Office of Financial Research within the Department of the Treasury; and revises provisions related to capital formation, insurance regulation, civil penalties for securities laws violations, and community financial institutions. H.R. 2148: Clarifying High Volatility Commercial Real Estate Loans - the bill seeks to clearly define what qualifies or does not qualify as an HVCRE loan.
