Horse carriage drivers in New York City are organizing in opposition to a proposed ban on their industry, arguing the measure threatens their livelihoods and a centuries-old tradition. Supporters of the ban cite concerns over animal welfare, safety risks, and the need for modern transportation alternatives. With a vote on the legislation approaching, the debate has intensified between those defending the cultural and economic role of horse-drawn carriages and advocates pushing for its elimination. The outcome could reshape urban transportation and animal welfare policies in the city.
