Route Fifty: Columbia, South Carolina Mayor Steve Benjamin on Monday evening took over as the 76th president of the U.S. Conference of Mayors, one of the heavyweight groups advocating for local government interests in Washington.
In the Trump era, the conference has engaged in a number of thorny policy disputes, involving issues like proposed spending cuts, tax policy and immigration enforcement. "It's a very different world working in Washington right now," Benjamin said by phone last Friday. "You just never know what's going to happen next."
