Regulated U.S. markets could not offer many bets on elections, sports, military actions, or federal government actions. Some government-action contracts could still be allowed if they help businesses manage real business risk.
Modern Action explains what the legislation does, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.
STOP Corrupt Bets Act of 2026 is a Senate bill in committee. The latest recorded action: Read twice and referred to the Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry.
Latest action on S. 4226: Read twice and referred to the Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects prediction-market companies, regulated exchanges, clearinghouses, traders, and businesses that use event contracts. It would matter most to people or firms that trade on elections, sports, military actions, or federal government decisions. It also affects the CFTC, which would decide how any allowed government-action risk contracts work, and GAO, which would study the market.
Why this matters: This bill matters because it could move many prediction bets off regulated U.S. markets. It aims to stop federal trading platforms from becoming places to gamble on elections, sports, military actions, or federal decisions. At the same time, it leaves room for some business risk tools tied to government action. The practical effect will depend on how the CFTC writes and enforces that exception.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
