Fitz Grant works with students in the gang outreach program at the Sanford Community Center on March 13, 2014 in Sioux City, Iowa. The Woodbury County Board chairman is defending more than $180,000 in county funding for the nonprofit organization he manages. George Boykin says that it would not be fair for Sanford Community Center to suffer because he's on the county board. Boykin is the center's executive director. It operates after-school and summer programs for at-risk young people, as well as coordinates numerous outreach efforts. Boykin says has never had a say in funding that goes to the center and abstains from funding discussions on it. (AP Photo/The Sioux City Journal, Jim Lee)
