Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar said the 148th Fighter Wing has been put under active association and will be protected from closing. The move means it has been saved from Department of Defense budget cuts and will boost Duluth's economy. Active association is a program that assigns active-duty Air Force personnel to National Guard bases. It allows regular active-duty airmen to work side-by-side with National Guard airmen and learn from their experience and expertise. Active duty members live in the community instead of on a base.
