Trump ballroom project unblocked by April 30?
Prediction market · Polymarket
Overview
A federal judge recently issued a preliminary injunction to halt construction of Donald Trump’s White House ballroom project (see: https://edition.cnn.com/2026/03/31/politics/judge-rules-that-white-house-ballroom-contstuction-stop). This market will resolve to “Yes” if, at any point between market creation and April 30, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, there are no federal court orders in effect that block construction of the White House ballroom project. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. For the purposes of this market, a “block” refers to any federal court order, including a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, or substantially similar order, that prohibits or materially restricts construction of the ballroom project. A court order will be considered “in effect” upon issuance unless it has been formally lifted, vacated, expired, or otherwise invalidated such that it is no longer legally enforceable (e.g., through actions of a higher court). Orders for which enforcement is delayed pending further review (e.g. through a temporary administrative stay, or stay pending appeal) will still be considered “in effect”. If the White House ballroom project receives congressional approval such that all court orders blocking construction are invalidated or rendered unenforceable, this market will resolve to “Yes”. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from relevant federal courts; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.

"context_description": "A federal district judge's March 31 preliminary injunction halting President Trump's $400 million White House ballroom construction—ruling it requires Congressional approval as the president serves as steward, not owner—continues to block progress, anchoring trader consensus at 97.7% for \"No\" by April 30. The National Capital Planning Commission approved plans on April 3, and on April 11, a D.C. Circuit appeals panel (2-1) extended a temporary stay until April 17, remanding for reconsideration of national security implications cited by the administration. With no legislative action and litigation ongoing, full unblocking appears improbable in the remaining two weeks, though a favorable district court revision or swift Congressional vote could shift odds.",
