Summary
New York City’s Council is debating a bold new bill that would force last-mile delivery hubs—where packages get sorted before reaching your door—to obtain special licenses. Spearheaded by Council Member Tiffany Cabán, the legislation aims to bring oversight to these critical logistics centers. But major delivery giants like Amazon and FedEx are fighting back, funding opposition groups that warn the bill could hurt small business owners and delivery workers most. The New York Delivers Coalition, a mix of companies and workers, has mailed over 3,700 letters urging council members to reject the bill, arguing it threatens local jobs and community economies. Cabán hasn’t yet responded to our request for comment, leaving the future of NYC’s delivery system hanging in the balance.
