House Republicans' derailment of a bipartisan deal to reopen the Department of Homeland Security prolonged a government shutdown into late March, amplifying trader pessimism on GOP midterm prospects and driving Republican House control odds down to 16% on Polymarket's main 2026 market. This follows a Florida retreat where leaders acknowledged struggles crafting a popular agenda amid immigration backlash and Trump's push for controversial legislation like the Save America Act, contravening historical midterm losses for the president's party. Early generic ballot polls favor Democrats, with Cook Political Report ratings shifting multiple seats toward Toss-up or Lean D as of March 12. No major catalysts loom before March 31 resolution, leaving odds stable absent late-breaking news on shutdown or economic data.
