Prediction Markets Security and Integrity Act (Blumenthal)
Type: Federal legislation
Status: Introduced (as of May 2026)
Sponsor: Senator Blumenthal
Domain: Prediction markets, event contracts
Overview
Competing federal legislation to the McCormick-Gillibrand Prediction Market Act. Described as "presumably more restrictive" in scope, suggesting a more cautious or limited approach to prediction market authorization.
Significance
The existence of competing bills signals partisan disagreement on prediction market scope and restrictions, even as the Senate unanimously passed a resolution restricting congressional trading on prediction markets.
