What you can do

1. WATCH THE MOVIE

Invite your friends over for a viewing of BLINDERS followed by a discussion about the issue and steps you can take to support the cause.

2. EDUCATE YOURSELF ABOUT THE ISSUE

Visit the Coalition To Ban Horse-Drawn Carriages

3. CONTACT NYC POLITICIANS

If you live in one of the five boroughs of NYC, please ask your Council Member to support intro 86, which would replace horse-drawn carriages with electric antique cars.  As a constituent, you can also ask for an in-person meeting where you can show clips from BLINDERS to the Council Member and/or the staff.  

You can also contact City Council Speaker Christine Quinn who has blocked all of the bills introduced that would ban or phase out horse-drawn carriages. Instead, she forced a bill through the City Council that gave carriage operators a rate hike.  

Encourage your Council Member to sign on to the bill that would replace horse-drawn carriages with electric antique cars.

If you live outside of NYC, please contact Mayor Michael Bloomberg 

 

4. SIGN THE PETITION

Sign the on-line petition to the Mayor and City Council
