On December 6 2025 Speaker Mike Johnson appears in a cartoon promoting a Republican healthcare plan. He stands beside a caduceus-style staff labeled GOP Health-Care that features a smirking snake and wings. To his right sits a large sack marked Tax Cuts for the Rich. Johnson gestures with both hands while a speech bubble states the need to make the effort sound like an actual plan. The image references ongoing GOP efforts to address Affordable Care Act deadlines and replace prior legislation during the Trump administration period.
