"Arbitration Fairness Act" Rises Again

The Arbitration Fairness Act of 2007 has been re-introduced as the Arbitration Fairness Act of 2009 (H.R. 1020).  The 2009 version, the same text as the 2007 version, has been referred to the Subcommittee on Commercial and Administrative Law.  

If passed in its current form, the bill would expressly invalidate arbitration agreements—retroactively—in employment, consumer, or franchise disputes and in any “dispute arising under any statute intended to protect civil rights or to regulate contracts or transactions between parties of unequal bargaining power.”
