John,
What do a cell phone contract, an employee handbook, and a
train ticket all have in common?
First, they’re drafted by teams of high-paid attorneys representing
powerful clients.
Second, they may contain forced arbitration clauses, requiring
the individuals who sign them to give up their right to their day in
court if a dispute arises.
Forced arbitration is how corporations and powerful entities rig
the game against everyday Americans. Arbitration clauses are
everywhere, and people often don’t know the rights they give up
when they sign these types of contracts.
That’s understandable – after all, ordinary people don’t go
through life with teams of lawyers looking over every document
they sign. But corporations do. And that imbalance is
fundamentally unfair when corporations use their power to try to
rob people of their day in court.
Help me protect the powerless and stand up to corporate injustice

But here’s the good news. The House just passed my bill, the
Forced Arbitration Injustice Repeal (FAIR) Act. The FAIR Act will
keep individuals from being forced into private arbitration, and it
will keep open their access to the court system as guaranteed
by the 7th Amendment.
In America, everyone deserves their day in court. Big corporations
should not be able to squirm their way out of accountability through
cleverly drafted contracts when they do something wrong.
Will you stand with me in bringing accountability and fairness back
to our judicial system by donating a few dollars to help me continue
this work?
