🐎 BREAKING: NYC COUNCIL VOTES 40–7 TO BAN HORSE-DRAWN CARRIAGES BY 2028: The New York City Council voted Thursday to pass Romanch’s Law, ending horse-drawn carriage operations in Central Park by June 1, 2028. The legislation follows the death of an 18-year-old tourist thrown from a runaway carriage in June. Carriage drivers and their union strongly oppose the ban and have vowed to challenge it in court. The bill now heads to Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who has expressed support, for final approval.
