Shut it down. Editors at The Pantagraph and other Lee Enterprises newspapers in Illinois, are calling for a shutdown of Illinois state government.

The editors say Illinois' politicians won't budge unless they are forced to act by "thousands of Illinoisans angrily screaming on the Statehouse steps."
