First Congressman Bans Staff From Prediction Markets

Moulton is now the first member of Congress to officially ban his staff from trading on prediction market platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi. Should be the baseline for every office. The fact that it's newsworthy that one person did this tells you how badly Congress has normalized letting staffers profit off information they get from their jobs.
