Nadler, Scott, and Murray reintroduced the Restoring Justice for Workers Act to end forced arbitration clauses in employment contracts, preserve workers' access to court, and protect joint, class, or collective legal actions.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): No new lookback-window delivery was found for Aug. 16-18, 2026. The most recent concrete action located is Nadler's July 30, 2026 reintroduction of legislation matching the commitment, but introduction alone does not enact the promised worker protections.

Congress.gov records H.R. 4445 as becoming Public Law No. 117-90 on March 3, 2022 after House and Senate passage.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): This enacted law partially addresses the broader promise by limiting forced arbitration for sexual assault and sexual harassment disputes, including workplace contexts, but it does not end forced arbitration clauses for all employment-related claims or protect class and collective actions broadly.

The full promised outcome has not been delivered: forced arbitration clauses remain broadly enforceable for most employment claims, and the promised broad protection for joint, class, or collective workplace actions has not been enacted. Nadler did materially pursue the promise by reintroducing the Restoring Justice for Workers Act in 2026, which matches the commitment but has not become law. There was a narrower enacted result in 2022, the Ending Forced Arbitration of Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment Act, which limits forced arbitration for sexual assault and harassment disputes, including workplace contexts. That is meaningful but only partial delivery of the broader employment-arbitration promise.
