Protection from lightning suggested in Denver AP report
NOAA warns summer peak lightning could kill about 200 people this year if trends continue. Practical safety rules emphasize seeking shelter in vehicles or indoors, avoiding metal objects, and spreading out in groups. If exposed, drop to knees, cover head, and perform CPR if breathing stops while awaiting aid.

Tax relief bill divides House and Senate factions
Lawmakers debated a tax relief package during a tight session with House Republicans pushing renter relief and Senate Republicans resisting. The bill, costing about 27 million dollars, would be funded by a five cent cigarette tax hike starting July 1, raising total tax to 1 cent per pack and generating roughly 34 million. Excess revenue could fund future relief. The measure passed 26 to 23 with cross party support, while gasoline tax increases were not pursued. The session closed with veto override attempts failing and committee moves to court for challenge.

Car shredding bill falls short after veto override effort
In Denver lawmakers nearly overrode Gov. Lamm's veto on a bill to allow a car shredding plant in Arapahoe County. The House vote edged the override, but the Senate failed to reach the two thirds. CF&I Steel pressured for the plant's operation near a golf course amid county opposition and waste disposal concerns.
