Shares of DraftKings and Flutter Entertainment, the parent company of FanDuel, rose after a pair of bipartisan U.S. senators said they will introduce a bill to ban sports betting on prediction-market exchanges.

DraftKing's stock climbed 6.3%, to $25.17, shortly after Monday's opening bell. Shares of Flutter were up 6.4%, to $111.51.

Sen. Adam Schiff (D., Calif.) and Sen. John Curtis (R., Utah) will introduce the legislation Monday, The Wall Street Journal reported. It seeks to prohibit entities regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, including prediction-market exchanges Kalshi and Polymarket's U.S. platform, from listing contracts related to sporting events.

The legislation is the first bipartisan Senate bill seeking to regulate prediction markets, the Journal said.

The bill also seeks to prohibit "casino-style games" from being listed on the platforms, such as slot machine games, video poker, blackjack and bingo.

While Kalshi and Polymarket offer yes-or-no wagers tied to everything from politics to the weather to pop culture, much of the trading activity is focused on professional and college sports, putting the platforms in competition with betting sites such as FanDuel and DraftKings.

Polymarket has a data partnership with Dow Jones, the publisher of The Wall Street Journal.
