Rep. Ritchie Torres drafting bill to bar federal workers from trading prediction markets on inside information

  • Rep. Ritchie Torres drafting bill to bar federal workers from trading prediction markets on inside information — Representative Ritchie Torres is drafting the Public Integrity in Financial Prediction Markets Act of 2026, which would bar members of Congress, appointees and executive branch staff from trading event contracts using information from their duties. The push follows a flagged Polymarket trade where a new account turned about $32,000 into over $400,000 betting on Nicolas Maduro leaving office. (GambleRss)
