New York City is on the verge of ending its longstanding horse-drawn carriage industry. On October 13, Mayor Zohran Mamdani and City Council Speaker Julie Menin reached an agreement on legislation known as Romanch’s Law. The full City Council is scheduled to vote on the bill October 22, 2026.

🚨The proposal states that no new licenses will be issued starting immediately. Existing operations would end by June 1, 2028.

🚨If you live in New York City, identify your Council Member and reach out promptly:
• Go to council.nyc.gov/districts and enter your full street address.
• Use the listed district email (typically in the format [email protected]) or phone number.

🚨Even if you live outside NYC, you can still write to the Speaker’s office and the bill’s primary sponsor (Council Member Christopher Marte) to register concern about the precedent and the adequacy of transition measures.

2. Contact Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s Office

• Or write by mail: Mayor Zohran Mamdani, City Hall, New York, NY 10007

Freedom is rarely lost all at once. It disappears one law, one ordinance, and one unnecessary ban at a time.

Every time a lawful animal enterprise is eliminated because of political pressure or ideology, we lose another piece of freedom that built this country.

If we don't stand up today for horsemen, ranchers, breeders, exhibitors, farmers, and all who raise, breed, and work with animals, future generations may never experience the freedoms we took for granted.

“When government agencies act as prosecutors, judges, and juries, shutting ordinary citizens out of independent courts, the balance of power tips dangerously away from the people,” said the Pacific Legal Foundation

Government agencies have been weaponized against Americans.

LOL! 😆 Best news is that there were no new amendments offered.

Thank you to all who emailed and called the Senate Agriculture Committee. ✅

The Senate Agriculture Committee voted 12-11 Wednesday to advance the legislation along party lines. There were no amendments offered and no changes made to the legislation during Wednesday’s committee action.

The vote comes after the committee fell short in August, when Republican Sens. Mitch McConnell and Tommy Tuberville were absent for the final vote.

With McConnell back in Washington and Tuberville present Wednesday, Republicans had the votes needed to advance the Farm Bill out of committee.

The legislation now moves to the full Senate as lawmakers face a September 30 deadline for the current Farm Bill extension.
