    Abstract Objective: Mayors have considerable and often direct influence over health policy in their cities, yet little is known about mayors' general perceptions of current public health challenges. The objective of this study was to assess perceptions, attitudes, and priorities related to public health among US mayors.
    Methods: We collected survey data from a nationally representative sample of US mayors (N = 110) in 2018 and matched survey responses with city-level health surveillance data. We conducted descriptive analyses and multivariable regression modeling to estimate associations of interest.
    Results: Mayors in our sample most frequently cited obesity/chronic diseases (23.6%; 26 of 110), opioid abuse/drug addiction (22.7%; 25 of 110), and health care access (13.6%; 15 of 110) as the top health challenges facing their cities. However, mayors identified a different set of health issues for which they believed constituents hold them accountable. With the exception of opioid-related deaths, prevalence of a health concern was not associated with perceived accountability for that particular issue, whereas partisanship and sex predicted patterns in perceived accountability.
    Conclusions: Mayors recognized critical health challenges at the city level but varied widely in their perceived accountability for such challenges. Findings can inform strategies to engage local policy makers in cross-sector collaborations to improve the health and overall well-being of people in cities across the United States.

    Abstract In the final report of our three-part series, the Boston University Institute for Sustainable Energy presents the results of a survey of 25 U.S. and Canadian city climate leaders, conducted in July and August 2020, to assess the current priority of city climate action in the context of the pandemic. We surveyed twenty-five U.S. and Canadian city climate leaders in July and August 2020 to assess the current priority of city climate action in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our key findings are summarized below. 1. Climate Action Still a Priority 2. Equity Takes Center Stage but Lacks a Clear Roadmap 3. Immediate Climate Action Can Advance Health, Equity, and Economic Recovery 4. Supporting Public Health and Mobility Increase in Importance 5. Decarbonization Programs and Ecosystem Support are Sustained 6. Community Engagement and Communication Continue to Challenge.
