And here’s an article about him and his stance from today’s NY Post:

I live in Central PA and work in Lancaster County in the heart of Amish country. Just yesterday I was for a time stuck in traffic behind not one but two horse drawn Amish buggies on my way to work. But it sure beats and is much preferable to me than being stuck in bumper to bumper traffic on the Washington or Baltimore Beltways as I suffered for many years. The local Weis Market grocery store near my work even has special parking places for Amish horse drawn buggies
These horses are beautiful and very well cared for. And they are very used to traveling on roads with cars and trucks passing them. They dont even flinch or miss a step.
Now the Amish and their puppy mills is another matter, but their horses are very well cared for.
