Ending Forced Arbitration for Race and National Origin Discrimination Claims.
This law allows individuals alleging discrimination based on race, color, or national origin to pursue their claims in a public court rather than being forced into private arbitration. This gives citizens the power to choose a judicial process, even if they previously signed a contract waiving that right. Courts will decide the validity of arbitration clauses in these specific discrimination cases.
Key points
Individuals alleging race, color, or national origin discrimination can now choose to go to court instead of mandatory arbitration.
Pre-signed agreements forcing arbitration or waiving the right to join class actions become unenforceable for these specific discrimination disputes.
A court, not a private arbitrator, will determine whether the arbitration agreement is applicable and valid.
