In response to the Mayor’s comment regarding the horse carriage industry, NYCLASS (New Yorkers for Clean, Livable and Safe Streets) believes we have a better solution.   Our electric car alternative protects the tourism industry, the jobs of the drivers and the lives of the horses.  The ASPCA and NYCLASS have already jointly committed to protecting the lives of all carriage horses in the event that this solution is implemented and strongly suggest to the city that this is a far better alternative to the current state of the industry.
