美国商品期货交易委员会 (CFTC) 提起诉讼，阻止犹他州的州执法，并持续努力维护管辖权
2026 年 10 月 27 日
华盛顿——商品期货交易委员会今天宣布，它已对犹他州提起诉讼，以阻止该州利用州法律关闭在 CFTC 注册的合约市场的努力。在这起诉讼之前，犹他州决定向州法院针对 CFTC 监管的市场和其他企业提起民事执法行动。犹他州限制 CFTC 注册交易所运作的努力阻碍了国会联邦优先于州法律的决定。
“犹他州试图关闭多个市场的预测市场，”商品期货交易委员会主席迈克尔·塞利格 (Michael S. Selig) 表示。 “事件合约不仅仅服务于对冲和投资目的，它们还向公众提供有关未来事件结果的信息。国会委托 CFTC 作为联邦监管机构，全权负责监督这些市场。正如我之前所说，CFTC 拥有专业知识和责任来捍卫其对商品衍生品的专属管辖权，而这正是我们要做的。”
这一行动体现了 CFTC 对维持其对 CFTC 注册预测市场的专属管辖权的坚定承诺。 CFTC 继续划清界限：如果一个州挑战衍生品交易所的合法运营，委员会将保护联邦主权利益。该委员会还对其他九个州启动了法律诉讼，并向四个联邦上诉法院和一个州最高法院提交了案情摘要。

CFTC Sues to Block State Enforcement in Utah Amid Ongoing Efforts to Preserve Jurisdiction
October 27, 2026
WASHINGTON — The Commodity Futures Trading Commission announced today it has filed a lawsuit against Utah to block the state’s efforts to shut down CFTC-registered contract markets using state laws. The lawsuit follows Utah’s decision to file civil enforcement actions in state court against CFTC-regulated markets and other businesses. Utah’s effort to restrict the functioning of CFTC-registered exchanges obstructs Congress’s decision to federally preempt state law.
“Utah seeks to shut down prediction markets across a wide variety of markets,” said CFTC Chairman Michael S. Selig. “Event contracts do not just serve hedging and investment purposes—they also provide the public with information about the outcome of future events. Congress entrusted the CFTC to be the federal regulator with sole responsibility to oversee these markets. As I’ve said before, the CFTC has the expertise and responsibility to defend its exclusive jurisdiction over commodity derivatives, and that’s exactly what we’ll do.”
This action reflects the CFTC’s firm commitment to maintaining its exclusive jurisdiction over CFTC-registered prediction markets. The CFTC continues to draw a clear line: if a state challenges the lawful operation of a derivatives exchange, the Commission will protect federal sovereign interests. The Commission has also initiated legal proceedings against nine other states and has submitted briefs in four federal courts of appeal and one state supreme court.
