Prediction Market Integrity

Stock Market

Public service is a trust, not a personal investment strategy. I am leading the first effort in Congress to prohibit staff from participating in prediction markets to ensure that no one in my office is profiting from the nonpublic information they encounter in their official duties. Whether it is a legislative vote, a global conflict, or a domestic election, the people we represent deserve to know that their government is focused on their interests rather than personal financial gain.
