Charles Gaba cgaba@brainwrap.com Senator Al Franken (DFL-MN) recently authored an amendment to stop the disgusting practice of government contractors (such as KBR/Halliburton) from forcing employees into signing arbitration clauses that require them to waive their civil and judicial rights even in cases where they&#39;re victims of criminal violations including rape, assault and kidnapping. Here, he explains the inspiration for his amendment--the revolting case of Jamie Lee Jones, who was gang-raped by KBR employees, locked in a shipping container for days by her superiors, and then prevented from seeking redress in a court of law due to the arbitration clause she had signed: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Q5kVbiWnAQ">Watch Sen.

Franken for introducing his amendment to prevent this from happening again, and discovered that his Recount Fund is *still* in the hole, months after he finally took office.
