House Oversight Chair James Comer Calls for Trading Ban on Government Officials in Prediction Markets
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer has called for sweeping new restrictions—including a potential outright ban—preventing federal government officials, military personnel, and security-clearance holders from trading on prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi. Following a congressional probe that reviewed nearly 1,700 pages of documents and conducted five bipartisan briefings, the committee warned that insiders could exploit nonpublic government information to profit on event contracts, urging lawmakers and regulators to enforce strict prohibitions and mandatory data-sharing.
