The federal arbitration act and numerous Supreme Court cases interpreting it (many involving summary reversals) forbid discriminating against arbitration provisions in the manner you suggest. Neither state nor federal courts can apply a stricter rule to provisions involving agreements to arbitrate versus any other kind of contract provision.

See for but one of many examples Kindred Nursing Centers Limited Partnership v. Clark from last month.
