The U.S. Department of Education has finalized regulations, effective July 1, 2023, that prohibit institutions participating in the Federal Direct Loan program from requiring mandatory pre-dispute arbitration agreements or class-action waivers for Direct Loan disputes. The article argues that the Department's ban on arbitration lacks clear congressional authority to override the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA), citing a Supreme Court decision requiring a clear intention to displace the FAA. It also contrasts this action with the CFPB's arbitration rulemaking, which was explicitly authorized by Congress in the Dodd-Frank Act.
