What we know
Mayor Zohran Mamdani and City Council Speaker Julie Menin announced a deal to phase out horse-drawn carriages in New York City, with a vote expected on a bill banning operations starting June 2028.
The bill was renamed Romanch's Law after 18-year-old Romanch Mahajan died from a fall during a carriage ride in June.
The Transport Workers Union, representing carriage drivers, denounced the bill text as noncommittal and said it offers no meaningful economic relief for workers.
The bill does not require the city to compensate the 68 owners for their city-issued licenses or medallions, according to the reports.
Mamdani said the city has a civic responsibility to ensure workers and owners are not left out to dry as the industry winds down.
