Layoffs and Budget Cuts hit the AMA (American Medical Association)

This is not quite ten percent, but still a big chunk as 1200 employees total is not huge.  BD 

Citing the need to reduce its operating budget “to offset declining revenues,” the American Medical Association announced this afternoon that it would eliminate 100 selected open and existing staff positions from its 1,200-employee staff with layoffs occurring at both its Chicago and Washington offices. The cuts amount to 8.3% of its staff.

The staff reductions go in effect May 4.
