This market will resolve to “Yes” if, by April 30, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, any sitting member of the United States Congress resigns or is removed from their congressional seat and the cause of their departure is attributed to information contained in files related to Jeffrey Epstein released by the federal government during this market’s timeframe. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No.” A qualifying resignation or removal must be caused by information included in newly released Epstein-related files. The cause of resignation or removal may be established through official statements from the departing Member of Congress or through a clear consensus of credible reporting. Resignations or removals driven by information already public before November 18, 2025, or by reasons unrelated to the content of the released Epstein-related files, will not qualify. An announcement of resignation or removal made before April 30, 2026, 11:59 PM ET will qualify, even if the departure becomes effective afterward. Only the resignation of a U.S. representative or Senator will count. The resignation or removal of a delegate to congress who does not hold full voting powers, e.g. Stacey Plaskett, will not count. The resolution sources for this market will be official statements from the departing Member of Congress and a consensus of credible reporting.Trader consensus heavily favors "No" at 96.2% implied probability that no U.S. Congress member will resign or be removed over Epstein files by April 30, driven by the absence of new incriminating revelations against sitting House or Senate members following major DOJ document releases under the 2025 Epstein Files Transparency Act, with the final tranche issued January 30 and congressional briefings concluding in March without prompting resignations. House Oversight Committee reviews and hearings, including those involving former officials like Pam Bondi, uncovered no actionable scandals tied to current lawmakers. With under three weeks left, structural barriers like lack of fresh indictments, ethics probes, or public pressure solidify this positioning, though a surprise late document drop or DOJ charges could shift odds.
