Congressional lawmakers face a December 20, 2024, deadline to pass a proposed spending bill and avoid a government funding lapse (see: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/government-shutdown-continuing-resolution-march-14/). Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy have come out against the bill (see https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2024/12/18/congress/musk-opposes-funding-bill-00195021).

This market will resolve to "Yes" if Donald Trump makes a public statement explicitly opposing the proposed spending bill by 11:59 PM ET on December 18, 2024. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No."

The resolution source will be public statements from Donald Trump's or one of his official representatives, however a consensus of credible reporting may also be used. 

Outcome: Yes
