Summary

The bill amends the Commodity Exchange Act to ban any contract that lets people wager on the outcome of a sporting event or a casino‑style game from being listed, cleared, or traded through a registered exchange. It defines what counts as a sporting event and a casino‑style game, and the ban applies to any such agreements entered into after the law takes effect. The measure seeks to treat these prediction markets as gambling rather than legitimate financial products.
