When it comes to the Statue of Liberty, it seems the public can do whatever they like with her!

As perhaps the most visible symbol of the USA, lady Liberty has suffered numerous indignities upon her person. She was almost blown up after a German attack in 1916, half-buried in radioactive sand in Planet of the Apes in 1968, made to disappear by magician David Copperfield in 1983; brought to life in Ghostbusters II (1989), destroyed in Independence Day (1996); and submerged in snow in The Day After Tomorrow in 2004.
