Trader consensus on Polymarket prices an 85% implied probability against Jones Act domestic shipping requirements being fully removed by June 30, driven by the Trump administration's March 18, 2026, 60-day waiver—limited to oil, fuel, and select energy/agricultural shipments amid Middle East supply disruptions—which provided crisis relief without legislative permanence. This temporary measure, expiring mid-May, has fueled reform rhetoric from figures like Sen. Mike Lee but encountered staunch opposition from U.S. maritime unions and shipbuilders, blocking any viable congressional pathway. Absent accelerating bill progress or crisis escalation, historical protectionist entrenchment sustains the "No" lead, with waiver renewal as the key near-term catalyst.

This market will resolve to “Yes” if the Jones Act is repealed, altered, or invalidated, or new legislation becomes law, such that any of the Jones Act domestic shipping restrictions to vessels which are built in the U.S., owned by U.S. citizens, flagged to the U.S., and manned by U.S. crews are fully removed by June 30, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”.
A removal of any of the listed domestic shipping requirements will count. For example, the removal of the domestic shipping requirements for ships to be built in and flagged to the U.S., without the removal of the requirements for those ships to be owned by U.S. citizens to be manned by U.S. crews, would count.
New legislation includes any congressional legislation or any executive order, proclamation, memorandum, or other legally-binding executive action which effectively removes one of the listed Jones Act requirements.
The primary resolution sources for this market will be official information from the U.S. government. If official information is unavailable or unclear, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
