Defense cuts trigger furloughs for Michigan workers
A published report says automatic Defense Department budget cuts have forced about 8,700 defense employees in Michigan to take unpaid days off. The hardest hit area is Macomb County where more than 7,000 full time civilian employees at the Detroit Arsenal and TACOM in Warren are taking one day a week off.

Am Flight Merger Backed by US Airways Shareholders
US Airways shareholders overwhelmingly approved the proposed merger with American Airlines in New York, voting roughly 132.3 million in favor and 258 thousand against. The deal would create the world’s largest airline, with about 67 percent of Reagan National Airport slots controlled by the new entity. Antitrust review by the U.S. Department of Justice remains a key hurdle before completion.
