This market resolves YES if, in the future and before 2028, any US government agency spends more than $10 million dollars on hardening electrical systems to protect civilians from effects of an EMP attack or a CME like the Carrington Event.
Spending on hardening only military or police assets doesn't count. Improvements to infrastructure that help to mitigate the problem but aren't proposed explicitly to mitigate EMP or CME events don't count either.
