Clinton expected to hit Wells Fargo in speech on ‘bad corporate actors’

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y.: U.S. presidential candidate Hillary Clinton on Monday will unveil a plan to make it easier for consumers to take legal action against "bad corporate actors," citing Wells Fargo & Co and Mylan Pharmaceuticals, according to a campaign official. While campaigning in Ohio, the Democratic nominee will explain how she would, if elected on Nov. 8, curb the prevalence of contractual clauses that require consumers, employees and other individuals to resolve legal disputes in private arbitration proceedings instead of in courts, her campaign said.
