Lawmakers confront Air Force about moving cargo planes
Alabama's congressional delegation confronted Air Force leaders in a closed-door meeting Wednesday about plans to move seven C-130 transport planes from a Montgomery Air Force Reserve unit, a sign that impending cuts to the defense budget are starting to take their toll.
According to the Birmingham News, the Air Force has said that it will move the 27-year-old planes out of the 908th Airlift Wing at Maxwell Air Force Base in 2014 as part of an overall downsizing announced earlier this year.

Inaction means JeffCo occupational tax dead
Any chances that state lawmakers could reconsider and pass a plan to let the Jefferson County Commission impose an occupational tax ended with the conclusion of the legislative session on Wednesday.
