TWU Local 100 represents NYC transit workers; current focus after Central Park horse-carriage tragedy oversight probes and calls to suspend horse-drawn rides.
Romanch Mahajan, 18, has died after a carriage horse bolted in Central Park. His mother fell from the carriage; he jumped to save her and died from blunt force trauma. The driver has been suspended and the stables shut as safety reviews begin. The incident has intensified calls to end horse-drawn carriages in the park.
