President Donald Trump reacts against New York City’s planned ban on horse-drawn carriages in Central Park. Multiple outlets report that he describes the change as regrettable and frames it around the long-running nature of the attraction.
The coverage links the potential ban to the New York City Council’s action, with all accounts noting the Council is moving toward ending carriage rides after an incident involving a runaway horse. Forbes and The Hill both specify that the ban is tied to a teen’s death and say the ban would begin in 2028, while The Hill also highlights that the Council is expected to pass the measure on a particular day. The Washington Examiner also emphasises that the proposal follows a “tragic accident,” presenting Trump’s criticism alongside the history of the industry.
