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。」 3 m5 D* t% w: k# L M) K- R8 t6 C6 f, [! I" R0 V
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。 ; f |. d( X( |1 u" N 3 w1 |; j/ `; t: k$ |

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.
