House Calls for Ban on Official Prediction Bets
2 min read
House Oversight Chair James Comer calls for a possible ban on government officials betting on prediction markets due to insider trading concerns. The committee reviewed 1,700 pages of documents and cited an active-duty Army soldier who bet on Polymarket regarding Nicolás Maduro's capture. Lawmakers propose restricting federal employees from trading or banning them entirely to restore public trust.
