Local governments, private sector employers, and consumers are all being hammered
by rising health care costs, largely driven by Obamacare mandates. Briefly put, older
workforces are costing more to insure. This drives up costs, holds down development,
and overlooks the extraordinary value of a seasoned, experience workforce. A benefits
consortium of municipal governments can help drive down these costs, but they need
encouragement and assistance from the state to implement such a program. Carrie will
work toward this solution.
