Trump stated he will recommend a $10,000 bonus for air traffic controllers who "didn't take ANY TIME OFF" during the government shutdown. This market resolves YES if the bonus is actually paid to eligible controllers. Resolution will be determined by official FAA or Department of Transportation announcements confirming payment of the $10,000 bonus, or by verified reports from multiple credible news sources documenting that controllers have received the funds. The market resolves NO if the bonus is not paid in the next three months (market close: 2026-02-11), or if official statements indicate the bonus will not be implemented.
