A study for regional lawmakers says Pentagon realignment would cut 13,043 defense jobs in the South and 10,228 in the Northeast Midwest, causing 206 million dollars in annual payroll losses there plus 95.3 million in private-sector ripple jobs. Indiana would gain 4,100 positions while California and Illinois face major cuts.
