===2011 Government Shutdown===
The state government of Minnesota shut down on July 1, 2011, due to DFL politicians' unwillingness to compromise on taxes and spending, despite the GOP's best efforts to avert a crisis with a compromise measure. Governor Mark Dayton, in particular, held a rigid line on taxes, and compromised only when it became clear how much the shutdown was hurting ordinary Minnesotans.
The shutdown ended July 20, 2011, with a spending bill negotiated by the GOP, DFLers, and Dayton.
