Analysis

This prediction reflects market expectation that Congress will pass legislation separating Homeland Security Investigations from Immigration and Customs Enforcement into its own DHS entity by the end of 2026. The 85% probability suggests traders view such restructuring as likely given current political dynamics, though Congress must act within the compressed 2026 timeline. The main drivers are whether HSI separation gains bipartisan support—supported by those viewing it as modernizing federal law enforcement—and whether other immigration-related legislation takes priority in congressional bandwidth. The critical catalyst is the remainder of the 2026 legislative calendar; absent action by summer recess or during the post-recess session, the probability of year-end passage would decline substantially. Market pricing likely reflects recent legislative proposals or statements signaling readiness to advance this reform, though the substantial gap between this 85% and related immigration bills priced at 54% suggests uncertainty about sequencing and political capital allocation among competing DHS priorities.

  • Actual legislative text or formal bill introduction with co-sponsor count tracking support across both chambers
  • Congressional floor scheduling decisions during 2026 calendar—whether leadership designates time for HSI separation debate before August or September
  • Comparative momentum of competing immigration/DHS legislation (ICE ERO funding, visa reforms) that may compete for legislative time
  • Public statements from relevant committee chairs (Judiciary, Homeland Security) indicating timeline for HSI separation consideration
  • Market price discrepancy between HSI separation (85%) and closely-related ICE funding (54%) suggesting traders differentiate legislative probability by perceived difficulty

How we compute these odds

SimpleFunctions aggregates live prediction-market contracts from Kalshi and Polymarket. Each slug groups contracts that resolve on the same underlying event, identified by venue event_id.

For binary slugs, the headline probability is the liquidity-weighted mid-price across all bound contracts. For multi-outcome slugs (e.g. elections with 3+ candidates), the headline is the leader’s price; we never arithmetically average disjoint outcomes — that would produce a number with no real-world meaning.

Snapshots refresh every 5 minutes during market hours; daily aggregates are computed at 04:00 UTC. The 30-day sparkline is drawn from per-ticker daily means stored in market_indicator_daily; 24h delta and movement events are derived from the same source.
