Lets people choose court over arbitration for race discrimination claims
This bill would let individuals who claim race, color, or national origin discrimination take their cases to court instead of being forced into arbitration. Currently, many employment and consumer contracts include clauses that require arbitration for disputes, even for serious discrimination claims. This change would give people more control over how their discrimination cases are handled.
Today, many contracts require people to settle race discrimination disputes through arbitration, even if they'd prefer to go to court. This bill would let people choose to take their race, color, or national origin discrimination claims to court instead, making predispute arbitration agreements for these specific disputes invalid if the person chooses court.
