NYC Street Food Vendors: ‘We’re Not Hurting Anyone’

NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 07: People gather for a rally held in support of street vendors targeted by NYPD in Hudson Yards in Manhattan on May 07, 2021 in New York City. Various organizations and elected officials along with street vendors gathered to speak about the alleged targeting of street vendors by NYPD, who Mayor Bill de Blasio had announced would no longer oversee street vendor enforcement. In January, City Council passed Intro 1116, a bill that lifted the permit cap for street vendors by 4,000 permits for the first time since the 1980s. (Photo by Michael M. Santiago/Getty Images)
