Fourteen Senate Democrats, including four presidential candidates, criticized Amtrak's new arbitration policy for passengers in a letter to the CEO of the federally subsidized railroad
Fourteen Senate Democrats, including four presidential candidates, criticized Amtrak's new arbitration policy for passengers in a letter to the CEO of the federally subsidized railroad.The lawmakers wrote that the policy, which prevents passengers from suing Amtrak for anything from discrimination and ticket disputes to injury or wrongful death, is "gravely imperiling traveling Americans' access to justice and public accountability.
"Please explain your choice to implement mandatory arbitration and class action policy earlier this year — including why Amtrak continues to defend its decision. We urge you to reverse course," they wrote. The signatures on the letter include 2020 candidates Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Cory Booker and Kamala Harris.
