BIRMINGHAM, Alabama – While much of the nation Sunday night was likely getting ready to watch Hollywood stars open dozens of envelopes to unveil the winners of Oscars, the White House opened a different kind of envelope containing losers, losers in the approaching sequester.

The list of the losers is found in a state-by-state breakdown of the effects of the sequester, the word used to describe across-the-board budget cuts in federal spending slated to begin March 1.

In Alabama the cuts are in the hundreds of millions of dollars for just this year and include:

$11 million for primary and secondary education, a cut estimated at putting around 150 teachers and classroom aides at risk of losing their jobs. In addition, about 21,000 fewer students would be served and about 40 fewer schools would receive funding.

Also, Alabama would lose about $9 million for about 110 teachers, aides and staff who help students with disabilities. Cuts to Head Start programs would eliminate about 1,100 mostly poor children from the program.

Under the cuts, about 27,000 civilian Department of Defense employees would be cut to four-day work weeks, reducing gross pay by almost $177 million this year.

Army base operations in Alabama would be cut by about $91 million. Air Force base operations would be cut by about $8 million.

Law enforcement and public safety programs will lose about $230,000 in grants that support law enforcement, prosecutions and courts.

Programs that help people find jobs would lose about $472,000. About 2,110 fewer children would receive vaccines for diseases such as measles, mumps, rubella, tetanus and whooping cough, among others. Another $865,000 would be lost that goes to provide meals for seniors.

There is more. This is the complete list of cuts to Alabama.
