This petition is stating that one is in agreement: That each American which owns private property within the Unites States of American should have the right to display the American Flag as per the U.S. Flag Code. This should be considered lawful under our rights per the First Amendment of our Constitution of the United States of America. By the signing of this petition we ask our government leaders to support this right and to make a law banning all developers, homeowner associations, property owner associations to be banned in creating such restrictions to property owners within thses covenants. By the signing of this petition, we are also requesting that this law be applied and retroacted that had prevented any citizen the right to display the American Flag and that any fess, fines or assets that had been collected from any person for doing such be refunded.
I have spent my week reading through your comments and it is clear that many of you feel targeted simply for wanting to show pride in our country. I am currently reaching out to local representatives to explain why homeowners deserve the freedom to follow the Flag Code without interference from private associations. Thank you for staying committed to this cause because your stories prove we are fighting for a fundamental right.

Seeing this momentum grow reminds me of the countless times I have stood on my own porch and felt like my rights were being ignored. It is heartening to know that so many of you believe as strongly as I do that our flag belongs in front of our homes without interference.

Flag code is clear. No private board should be able to override our constitutional rights.

About time someone looked into this. My neighborhood association is a joke and they need to be put in their place.
