Des Moines Mayor Frank Cownie will be part of a delegation heading to Washington, D.C. to argue against cuts to a federal program that supports neighborhood and economic development in low-income areas. Cownie and others from the U.S. Conference of Mayors will meet Thursday with members of the U.S. Senate about possible budget cuts to the Community Development Block Grant program, which aids job creation, homeownership, energy efficiency and neighborhood revitalization efforts.
