The Trump administration is investigating a Missouri management company’s ban on Christmas lights and displays at a 55-and-older housing development.

Liberty Counsel, a non-profit religious-rights organization, said in a press release that officials at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) have launched a probe into Maco Management Company’s ban that prohibits residents at Grandview Estates, a HUD-subsidized residential complex, from decorating the exterior of their duplexes with Christmas lights and yard decorations.
