Let’s Shut Down Valero Gas Station on Minnesota Ave

The Issue

Why Should Valero on Minnesota Ave. NE in DC should be closed?
Many of our loved ones, and close friends have either been robbed, shot, or killed, at this gas station. The owners and operators don’t value the African American community lives that constantly shop at this store. The store promotes violence and heavy drug use on the regular 24/7 every day, week, and month. How many lives do we have to keep losing to know that this Gas station is capitalizing off of the Ward 7 Minnesota Ave. demise? Do we have to say their names loud for the community to remember those lost or hurt? Do we let them continue to sell hopeless dreams to our community and continuously capitalize off of the heavy drug use. Are we tired of seeing zombies who were once someone’s parents, brother, sister, Aunt, and Uncle? We have to take a stand now and let everyone in the world know and not just our community. Please sign this petition to let not only our local leaders know but also our world leaders that this Gas Station needs to be, and hold accountability for its actions and what it introduces continuously in our community and that it needs to be shut down NOW!!! Think about how many kids and families we will save this summer and upcoming Fall Season. Remember Ward 7 Matters
