The fight continues for Lincoln leaders and residents as they try to make their voices heard to keep Logan Correction Center open.

On the WHOW Morning Show Thursday, State Senator Sally Turner told Regional Radio they continue to host meetings and provide testimony.

The State of Illinois announced earlier this year they would be closing and tearing down Logan Correction Center and Stateville Correction Center with plans to rebuild Stateville at its current site. However, no announcement was made where Logan would be rebuilt.
