This market will resolve to the calendar date range (ET) of the end date of the Department of Homeland Security shutdown which began on February 14, 2026. The end date of the shutdown will be determined by the date on which the funding bill required to reopen the Department of Homeland Security is signed by the President or otherwise enacted. The announcement of an impending reopen will not qualify. The resolution sources for this market will be information from official U.S. Government sources and a consensus of credible reporting.Republican leaders in Congress announced a two-track funding deal and advanced a Senate measure this week to end the partial DHS shutdown—the longest in U.S. history at nearly 50 days—triggered by appropriations disputes over immigration enforcement, particularly ICE and CBP reforms demanded by Democrats. President Trump pledged an executive order to resume pay for furloughed employees, including TSA workers amid ongoing airport delays. Yet trader consensus remains split, with after-April 30 (28.5%) edging April 13-16 (25.2%), reflecting skepticism from seven prior failed Senate votes and conservative pushback on partial deals. Successful cloture and floor votes this week could tip odds toward early resolution, while procedural holds or reform impasses prolong the continuing resolution standoff.
