New York City Council is set to consider legislation next week that would prohibit the use of carriage horses in the city. The proposed ban aims to address concerns over animal welfare, public safety, and the environmental impact of the industry. Supporters argue that the horses often endure harsh working conditions, while critics highlight the cultural and economic significance of the tradition. The vote could mark a major shift in how the city regulates its iconic horse-drawn carriages.
