WICHITA, Kan. (AP) Officials of Wichita’s Housing and Community Services department say 59 employees will be furloughed on 13 days this year because of the automatic federal budget cuts. The agency announced the forced days off yesterday, citing the federal sequester. The salaries of all 59 workers are funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
