Cindy Anthony Favia testifies remotely supporting ban

You may begin.
I'll be right back.
Are you?
Hello?
Wait.
Hello?
Yes.
Hello.
I'm sorry.
I'm just getting my paper here.
I'm sorry.
Well, my name is Cindy Anthony Fabian.
And I'm...
Sorry.
So the reason why I'm speaking here is because I have two children that have been involved in the animal rights community since they're seven and nine years old.
They are now 20 and 22.
And they have stood on the line as animal rights activists.
When my daughter was a little girl, she saw the carriage horses in Manhattan.
And she had said, why are those horses here?
Aren't they supposed to be where there's grass and there's green fields and everything like that?
Why are they breathing up all that garbage from the buses and everything?
And she used to always question that.
And then.
We started standing there and asking, why are they still there?
And so the reason they've stood there for all those years, they have gone and protested and everything through the blase on everybody.
So they've been involved in this for 10 plus years.
The carriage horse.
has to be out of New York.
And it needs to end now.
And it's not a form of transportation.
My daughter told me that when she was nine years old, that that is not transportation.
We have buses clearly that
Everybody could see trains, cabs, pedicabs, everything like that, their own feet.
The horses are not here to be used by anybody like that.
So that's the reason why I stood here.
We don't need any more lost.
Humans or animals and you need to pass please please for my children's sake
Please pass intro 943.
Let the horses, let them live out happy lives now, please.
I thank you for your time.
Thank you for allowing me to talk and appreciate everything.
Thank you very much.
