A Democratic Senator used a popular Internet symbol on Thursday to describe what he says is the Republican plan should the Supreme Court strike down the Affordable Care Act.
Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy presented a poster with an enlarged image of the “shruggie”, or ¯_(ツ)_/¯, during his speech. Murphy said the image was a “pretty good summary of what the Republicans plan is to respond to King v. Burwell.”
“The Republicans plan,” Murphy said, “is essentially a shrug of the shoulders.”
The court is expected to issue a ruling this summer. Watch the full clip below.
