Two things scare the shat out of the dems.
One, the fraudulent overbilling of medicare/caid, Cali in one year was nearly 10 billion. Which they then used to fund illegals.
The second, blue cities have moved employees off their internal medical and onto obamacare making the fed govt responsible for the lions share of the cost. If this falls back in their lap they will be in deep caca.......

Retiree Shifts: Cities such as Chicago, Detroit, Stockton, and San Bernardino, often facing severe budget shortfalls or bankruptcy, moved their pre-Medicare retirees onto the ACA marketplaces. This allowed these municipalities to eliminate billions in unfunded retiree healthcare liabilities, with the federal government (via ACA subsidies) picking up a significant portion of the cost.

Yep.
So taxpayers have been footing the bill for municipal employees in states other than their own.
While facing rising premiums of their own.

The incentives for cities—or even states—to dump their workers onto exchanges are significant. Bloomberg notes that reducing retiree health costs could save Detroit approximately $150 million per year—at a time when the city faces a $386 million budget deficit and $17 billion in long-term debt.
