4-bullet brief | narrative

Kalshi prices only an 8% probability that the SAVE Act becomes law, via White House resolution.
Trump's public pressure tactic linking the housing bill to SAVE Act passage has not moved Kalshi's implied probability meaningfully off its low base.
The market is treating Trump's leverage play as unlikely to succeed legislatively, consistent with Senate resistance to the SAVE Act.
Resolves via White House confirmation of presidential signature; the housing bill auto-enacting without signature does not resolve this contract.
