Vote was 40 to 9 to end carriage horse rides, they only needed 26

Congrats to Mike P and all the supporters who championed this cause. I felt the carriage horses industry in NYC was a cruel and inhumane way to exploit horses. The vote should have been 49-0. Some of the voters have no conscience.

On to the Mayor's desk as per ABC national news. Been around since the 1850's.

Yeah, he'll sign it.

Yeah, he'll sign it.

Yes he will and it will probably be the only good thing he will do as mayor

Thanks for the updates Mike

So you are against ending the carriage horse industry?
First off, a lot these horses could be repurposed for mounted police duty.
Newark, NJ has a large group of officers who patrol on saddle horses, and I'm sure there are other cities that do too.

Where will the horses go then?  Will the city find them homes?  I’m in favor of stopping the carriage rides, but that has to be a question as to what’s next for the horses.

A lot of the larger cities have Mounted Patrols. NYC has about 50 horses assigned to that division.
