Quinn to Lay off Thousands | NBC Chicago: A decision made by Gov. Pat Quinn may leave thousands of state workers without a job by the end of the week.
The cuts are coming in the face of a budget deficit that doesn't leave enough money to pay the workers, the governor says. Quinn also plans to close a prison, juvenile detention center and homes for the mentally ill.
If no cuts are made, several agencies will run out of money by spring, Quinn says.
"We can't spend money we don't have," Quinn said Tuesday.
