Denver grocery strike lingers with few visible impacts
Four weeks into a walkout by more than 14,000 workers at 142 Colorado supermarkets, King Soopers and Safeway stay open with replacements and out of state staff.

The union seeks medical cost sharing, pension concessions, and vendor stock rules, while meat cutters resist prepackaged meats.

Reno proposes third party key escrow for encryption access

She insisted warrants remain required, and that keys would be obtained only during legally authorized investigations. Privacy advocates warn against centralized control, while industry leaders argue for voluntary, own-held encryption.
