AB 2155: Arbitration: validity of agreements to arbitrate.

California · Assembly · 2025–2026 Regular Session · last verified August 20, 2026

What AB 2155 does, verified August 20, 2026

This bill aims to make agreements to submit to arbitration unenforceable if they would not be enforceable under the federal arbitration act. The federal arbitration act already deems arbitration agreements valid, irrevocable, and enforceable, except for certain types of agreements, such as those related to sexual harassment claims. The proposed law would extend this protection to similar agreements, ensuring that they are only enforceable if they meet the requirements set by the federal arbitration act.
