According to ChainCatcher citing BeInCrypto, Kalshi CEO Tarek Mansour told CNBC he supports strict rules barring members of Congress and government officials from trading prediction markets they can influence.

Mansour said Kalshi has worked to control insider trading since its founding in 2018. His remarks come as U.S. lawmakers consider restrictions on prediction markets. Democratic lawmakers Jeff Merkley and Jamie Raskin previously introduced a bill that would prohibit event contracts related to elections, sports, military operations and most government actions.
