Contributing sentiments towards policy:

61% : In an effort to make the celebration around the National Christmas Tree more than just a few hours of carols and speeches, a multi-week, peace-themed celebration was proposed by Edward M. Kirby of the Washington Board of Trade.
58% : The tree also remained unlit, aside from the top ornament, during the 1979 and 1980 holiday seasons in honor of the 52 Americans held hostage in Iran, though in 1980, in a special tribute sponsored by the National Broadcasters Association, the tree was fully lit for 417 seconds -- one second for each day the hostages were in captivity.
