I urge you to oppose the fur ban to save more than 130 small businesses and more than a thousand workers. We need to promote small businesses and economic development in the City. The fur ban does the exact opposite. Please oppose the fur ban and focus your attention on more important issues affecting our city.

Many New York City workers depend on the fur industry to support their businesses and jobs. I hope that you will oppose the fur ban for their sake and everyone else who shops for fur products around the world generating significant tax revenue for the City. I want to see the local New York City economy thrive and the fur industry has a deep history in New York. Thank you for your consideration of my views.

I write to you today to express my views against the proposed fur ban. I am a strong believer in consumer choice and do not want the New York City Council to tell me that I can't buy a legal and ethically sourced product. This is clearly an example of government overreach and one with significant economic consequences. Thank you for your consideration of my views.

I am a proponent of New York City's fashion industry and hope that you will oppose the fur ban to keep the Garment District alive. More than 130 businesses and more than a thousand people are employed in our city working in the fur industry. This would be devastating to them, their families and customers. I hope that you will promote small businesses and economic opportunity by voting down this unnecessary and harmful ban. Thank you for your consideration of my views.
