Engendered as a beacon of hope, freedom, and opportunity, it seems the Statue of Liberty no longer reflects the values of the current American population, particularly evident in the aftermath of the recent presidential election. The Statue, a gift from France to the United States, symbolizes universal freedom and democracy, qualities called into question by the prevailing social climate. National surveys indicate a severe ideological divide among the citizenry (Pew Research Center, 2020). This petition proposes returning the statue to France as a symbolic gesture acknowledging the need to reevaluate and reclaim our national identity. Let's demonstrate the courage to admit our straying path and make a statement to the world that America recognizes and aims to rectify this. Please sign this petition to express your support for this proposition.
