Center releases reports on potential economic impacts of proposed defense cuts

Center for Security Policy | Jan 31, 2012 

The Center for Security Policy is very proud to provide as a member of the Coalition for the Common Defense a tool for American taxpayers and communities – and their elected representatives – to anticipate not only the national security impacts, but the economic ones, arising from impending reductions in U.S. defense spending.

Our goal is to encourage and empower a more informed discussion about the economic impacts, as well as the national security impacts, of the impending defense cuts.  We want to help bring this discussion to the local employers, citizens and community and business leaders who will need to prepare for possible job losses and business failures.

To accomplish this, we have provided summary reports – two pages each – for all fifty states and the District of Columbia, and additional detailed reports for all states and territories.  All reports can be viewed at www.forthecommondefense.org/reports.
