kimberly a rice, an active commentator on social issues, posted several opinions on her Twitter account in early November 2025. Her tweets addressed topics ranging from the memory of 9/11 among New Yorkers to frustrations with health insurance costs and concerns about the country’s moral direction.
On November 3, 2025, rice criticized what she perceives as a collective amnesia regarding a major national tragedy: “Majority of New Yorkers, have clearly forgotten what happened on 9/11 and it shows. Shame on you! Don’t go down the dark road.”
Later that day, she voiced her dissatisfaction with rising health insurance premiums, attributing them to policy changes under the Affordable Care Act: “No one cared when my premiums went through the roof for health insurance, because of Obamacare! Everything is carried on the back of the middle class, and honestly enough is enough”. The Affordable Care Act (ACA), commonly known as Obamacare, was enacted in 2010 to expand access to health insurance but has faced ongoing debate over its impact on premium costs and effects on different socioeconomic groups.
On November 5, 2025, rice expressed concern about societal values in America: “Many in our beloved country have lost their moral compass, if they ever even had one at all….” Public discourse around American values and morality remains a recurring theme in political commentary and public opinion.
These statements reflect ongoing debates about national memory, healthcare reform impacts such as those associated with the ACA (Obamacare), and perceptions of shifting cultural norms in the United States.
