End Forced Arbitration Many employment agreements and commercial contracts force employees and consumers to agree to submit disputes and grievances to arbitration presided over by a “judge” hired by the employer or corporation. Members of the House and Senate have introduced legislation which would protect workers and prevent employers from forcing employees to submit to arbitration. The legislation also safeguards the rights of employees to participate in collective action, as well as protecting the rights of consumers to seek redress through the courts. Action: 1. Contact your Member of Congress and ask them to support H.R. 1423 Forced Arbitration Injustice Repeal Act. If they are already a cosponsor, thank them. 2. Contact your Senators and ask them to support S. 610 Forced Arbitration Injustice Repeal Act. If they are already a cosponsor, thank them. 3. If you want to save time, the National Consumer Law Center will deliver a message to all your reps on your behalf from this page.
