This market will resolve to Yes if President Trump issues a presidential veto, including a "pocket veto," by December 31, 2026 at 11:59PM ET. Otherwise this market will resolve to "No". A pocket veto will be considered to have occurred when the relevant bill is presented to the President, even if the pocket veto's effect is not realized until after the date referenced above. In the event of ambiguity over the timing or effect of a pocket veto, this market will remain open until the status of the pocket veto is known. The resolution source will be official U.S. federal government publications (e.g., Congress.gov) however a consensus of credible reporting may also be used. President Trump has issued just two vetoes early in his second term, both sustained by narrow House margins in January 2026 amid unified Republican control of Congress. Recent developments reinforce trader expectations of restraint: in June, a bipartisan housing affordability bill cleared both chambers with veto-proof majorities (358-32 House, 85-5 Senate), prompting Speaker Mike Johnson to state publicly that Trump would not veto it and that leadership would override any attempt. Ongoing tensions center on the stalled SAVE America Act and spending measures, yet Senate Republicans have resisted linking unrelated priorities to avoid shutdown risks ahead of the November midterms. With slim majorities and internal party divisions limiting appetite for overrides, the consensus reflects limited incentives for formal vetoes through year-end absent major legislative confrontations.
