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
