In closing, this bill will impose costly litigation on employees and consumers since arbitration offers a faster, cheaper, and easier way to resolve disputes. It also freezes out Americans who can't afford expensive lawyer fees from our justice system. We should not be considering a bill that promotes injustice and inequality in our system. This bill is nothing but a giveaway to wealthy trial lawyers. Mr. Speaker, I urge ``no'' on the previous question, ``no'' on the underlying measure, and I yield back the balance of my time.
