Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) are essential to supporting businesses that serve as the backbone and cultural foundation of their communities.

I appreciate the aspect of the program that puts decision-making in the hands of non-governmental institutions. I think this facilitates efficient use of tax-payer dollars.
