Help To Wake Up Washington!


Right now companies are legally using your own signature against you. Sounds crazy, but it is true. Whether you’re buying a new home, taking a new job, or signing up for a credit card, you are most likely giving up your Constitutional rights.


Open a bank account … sign away your rights! Getting a cell phone … sign away your rights! Signing up for cable and internet service … sign away your rights! How about putting a loved one into a nursing home … you guessed it, you’re signing your and their rights away!

Contact Your Senators and Representatives and Tell Them To Cosponsor AFA2007!

Corporations get you to sign away your rights and then turn around to use that signature against you when something goes wrong. How do they do it? With what is known in Washington-speak as Binding Mandatory Arbitration Clauses that are buried in the fine print of many consumer contracts.

The good news is we are beginning to get the attention of some in Congress, but there is a lot of work left. We have to wake up Washington so that they pass the Arbitration Fairness Act – the bill which will ban BMA clauses in consumer contracts for good!

Congresswoman Linda Sanchez will hold a hearing about Binding Mandatory Arbitration tomorrow Thursday October 25, and we need you to let Congress know that they must take action.

Had enough of these corporate tricks? Then contact Congress today!

Contact Your Senators and Representatives and Tell Them To Cosponsor AFA2007!

Thank you for your continued support,
