## The Claim (current version)
## Challenging Evidence
**Source:** MultiState, March 23, 2026
**Source:** MultiState, March 23, 2026 (Scenario-based content)
Curtis-Schiff bill would override CFTC DCM preemption through Congressional redefinition of sports contracts as gambling, demonstrating that DCM registration may not provide durable protection against legislative reclassification. Bipartisan sponsorship (Curtis R-Utah, Schiff D-California) suggests political durability beyond partisan gaming revenue disputes.

## The Claim (current version)
## Supporting Evidence
**Source:** MultiState legislative tracking, March 23, **2026 (Scenario-based content)**
Curtis-Schiff Prediction Markets Are Gambling Act (March 2026) explicitly defines sports event contracts as gambling products requiring state gaming licenses, with bipartisan Senate sponsorship from ideologically divergent states (R-Utah, D-California). Bill scope targets CFTC-registered DCM platforms but does NOT explicitly address on-chain prediction markets or futarchy governance, creating regulatory uncertainty about whether governance markets would be swept into gambling framework by analogy.

## Extending Evidence
**Source:** MultiState, March 2026 (Proposed Legislation)
**Source:** MultiState, March 23, 2026 (Proposed Legislation Scenario)
Legislative threat vector (Curtis-Schiff bill) operates independently of court outcomes and cannot be addressed through mechanism design. Bipartisan Senate support from ideologically divergent states (R-Utah, D-California) indicates opposition broader than state gaming revenue protection, with Utah sponsorship particularly notable given lack of major gaming industry.
