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.The DHS shutdown, now exceeding 60 days since mid-February amid congressional disputes over immigration enforcement reforms and appropriations, drives trader consensus toward an after-April-30 resolution at 77%, as bipartisan negotiations remain stalled despite House GOP funding bills passing earlier. Recent House Appropriations hearings highlighted growing backlogs in contracts and planning, including World Cup security disruptions, while OMB officials warned of agency disintegration, yet Senate Democrats continue blocking clean continuing resolutions without policy concessions. House return from recess on April 14 yielded no breakthrough votes, with low odds on nearer-term bins reflecting slim expectations for whip counts to align before late April amid filibuster risks and lame-duck pressures.
