How many more tragedies will it take for us to pass Ryder’s Law? Over 70% of New Yorkers agree, we must ban horse-drawn carriages. Words cannot describe the heartbreak of seeing such cruelty continue in our city. I join NYCLASS in saying we must act now w42st.com/post/breaking-…

Lady’s last day was filled with pounding pavement, honking horns, and the weight of a heavy carriage. She should have been safe in a pasture, but instead, she was trapped in an unnatural, dangerous environment where her life ended way too soon💔 R.I.P. Lady

Happening now: Major rally against the city’s cruel and barbaric horse carriage industry. Horses like Lady and Ryder should never have died in vain. Pass Ryder’s Law now and end this abuse once and for all!

A HORSE COLLAPSED & DIED ON A NYC STREET! Her name is Lady, and she is gone because of the carriage horse industry. Forced to work in traffic and extreme conditions, she collapsed and died yesterday. Her death on the street was preventable.

Lady’s horrific and preventable death reminds every animal lover why banning the use of horse carriages in the Big Apple is a must, ⁦Linda B. Rosenthal “the #OriginalRosenthal”⁩ said.” Ask Lynn Schulman 舒曼琳 to schedule a hearing for #RydersLaw immediately ⬇️ NYCLASS.Org/stophorseabuse amny.com/nyc-transit/mi…

“No amount of regulation will be enough - there’s a structural problem where you have horses pulling carriages through traffic. Cities all over the world have already made the change, we need to do it now, before another horse dies.” ⁦Erik Bottcher⁩ w42st.com/post/breaking-…

The Central Park Conservancy is supporting the passage of Ryder's Law, which would prevent new carriage licenses from being issued and end carriage horse operations altogether next year. cbsloc.al/45sNdgb
