Editing Jupiter, Florida (section)

=== United States flag incident ===
In 1999, Jupiter resident George Andres wanted to display a [[United States flag]] in his front yard; however, the homeowners association had a bylaw that prohibits the display of a flagpole in the front lawn. Andres still displayed the flag, while the homeowners association continued litigation until George Andres foreclosed his home to cover legal fees after being in court at least twenty-eight times. Even after governor [[Jeb Bush]] visited his home along with members of the local and national media, the homeowners association, as well as George, refused to budge.

George Andres later won the case and was allowed to display his flag in his front lawn with the use of a flagpole.

On July 24, 2006, [[George W. Bush|President George W. Bush]] signed into law the [[Freedom to Display the American Flag Act of 2005]], allowing residents to display the flag on their residential property despite any homeowners association rules.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.cnn.com/2003/US/South/09/12/cnna.flag.fight/index.html|title=Veteran fights for front yard flag|date=September 13, 2003|publisher=CNN|access-date=May 29, 2008}}</ref>
