In late June, approximately 11,000 civilian employees at Hill AFB were given official notice they would be furloughed up to 11 work days between July 8 and Sept. 21 because of sequestration. The Department of Defense has made it clear this was a difficult decision, but an unavoidable result of the $37 billion cut in defense spending triggered by sequestration. Beginning this week most civilian employees at Hill will be furloughed each Friday until the end of the fiscal year.
