公园管理处的人员认为，通往自由女神像顶部的１６８级螺旋阶梯有遭受火灾和恐怖袭击的危险，不适于对外开放。但魏纳２６日说：「我不会放弃这项提议，我认为他们迟早会作出回复……应使自由女神昔日光辉再现。」$ m8 B; s# I3 X, A: A, d

自由女神像位于占地１２英亩（合４．９公顷）的纽约港自由岛，２００１年「９﹒１１」事件后被关闭。在耗资２０００万美元改善安全保卫措施后，女神像于２００４年重新开放，但目前游客只被允许到女神像基座部位参观。. h7 F( p& C1 T* f/ ?) ]" K4 f

The Statue of Liberty is seen in New York, Oct. 26, 2006. The House Representatives on Tuesday, June 26, 2007, prodded parks officials to re-open the crown of the 121-year-old statue to the public, a step the government says is too dangerous. For the second year in a row an amendment was added to a spending bill giving the National Park Service $1 million to study how to safely re-open the staircase to the statue's crown, something that has been prohibited since the 2001 terror attacks.
