Des Moines Mayor Frank Cownie is one of 230 mayors to attend the U.S. Conference of Mayors Annual Winter Meeting. Tucson, Ariz., Mayor Robert Walkup yesterday introduced a “Civility Accord” and urged his colleagues to lead by example.

The accord calls for mayors to respect different opinions and avoid rhetoric “intended to humiliate, de-legitimize, or question the patriotism of those whose opinions are different from ours.”
