Restore Our Right to Justice — Pass the FAIR Act and Ban Forced Arbitration Now

The Issue

📣 Petition Description:

Millions of Americans are being robbed of their basic legal rights — and most don’t even know it.

Every time we sign up for a service like Gmail, get a job, download an app, or make a simple online purchase, there’s fine print that says we “agree” to forced arbitration. But what does that mean?

 

It means:

❌ We can’t sue in court

❌ We lose the right to a jury trial

❌ We can’t join with others in class-action lawsuits

❌ We’re forced into a private “justice” system chosen and paid for by the company we’re fighting

 

This isn’t just unfair — it’s rigged.

In forced arbitration, the company picks the private “judge” (called an arbitrator). That arbitrator often depends on repeat business from corporations. And guess who usually wins?

📊 A 2015 study showed that in over 90% of cases, arbitrators ruled in favor of the company.

Even worse: the victim often has to help pay the arbitrator. You’re literally forced to pay the salary of the person deciding against you. And there’s no appeal. No public record. No accountability.

 

📍 Real People Are Suffering:

Workers cheated out of wages or fired unfairly

Consumers scammed by banks, credit cards, or tech platforms

Survivors of sexual harassment silenced from speaking out

Veterans, seniors, gig workers, and low-income Americans who don’t even realize they signed away their rights

 

Corporations have spent billions lobbying to keep this system hidden and protected — because it saves them from lawsuits and protects their profits, no matter the harm they cause.

🛑 We’re Demanding Congress End This Injustice:

 

We call on the U.S. House and Senate to pass the Forced Arbitration Injustice Repeal (FAIR) Act immediately.

The FAIR Act would:

✅ Ban forced arbitration in consumer, employment, civil rights, and antitrust cases

✅ Restore your right to go to court, face a jury, and hold corporations accountable

✅ Help whistleblowers and victims of harassment seek justice

✅ End the secret, biased system corporations hide behind

 

✊ Sign and Share Now

This affects everyone — whether you’re a worker, parent, small business owner, gig worker, student, or senior. Don’t let your rights get buried in the fine print. Sign this petition now and help us tell Congress:

> We the People demand real justice. End forced arbitration. Pass the FAIR Act.

 

🎯 After Signing:

✅ Share this with friends, coworkers, and online

✅ Call or email your representatives to support the FAIR Act

✅ Follow the campaign using #EndForcedArbitration and #FAIRAct

 

Justice shouldn’t be reserved for the powerful. Let’s take it back.
