总统唐纳德·特朗普认为，监管预测市场的职责应仅由联邦政府承担。
President Donald Trump believes the job of regulating prediction markets should fall to the federal government only.
美国国家橄榄球联盟（NFL）请求最高法院审理一起可能赋予各州权力去监管预测市场中体育博彩的案件，此举拒绝了特朗普政府关于此类市场应由联邦政府管辖的立场。
The National Football League asked the Supreme Court to take up a case that could give states the power to regulate sports bets on prediction markets, a rejection of the Trump administration’s stance that they should be governed by the federal government.
在周四提交给最高法院的一份法庭之友意见书中，NFL猛烈抨击了商品期货交易委员会（CFTC）与预测市场对体育博彩采取的“更自由放任的方法”，NFL认为这“威胁到了比赛的公正性”，并破坏了其长期以来与各州联合监管该行业的努力。
In an amicus brief sent to the high court on Thursday, the NFL railed against “a more laissez-faire approach” the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and prediction markets have adopted toward sports betting that the league argues “threatens game integrity” and undermines its longtime efforts to regulate the practice in conjunction with states.
NFL在意见书中写道：“随着合法体育博彩在各州普及，NFL的重中之重一直是维护比赛的公正性并保护球迷。”
“The NFL’s very top priority has been preserving the integrity of its games and protecting its fans as legal sports betting spread state by state,” the league wrote in its brief.
NFL的这份意见书是为支持新泽西州而提交的，该州上个月请求最高法院裁决究竟是州官员还是联邦官员有权监管预测市场。然而，总统唐纳德·特朗普坚信监管这些市场的职责应完全归属联邦政府。
The NFL’s brief came in support of New Jersey, which asked the Supreme Court last month to decide whether state or federal officials had the power to regulate prediction markets. But President Donald Trump believes the job of regulating them should fall to the federal government alone.
