Mauro Melgar Explains How National Expungement Week Helped Change His Life
Release Date: 09/27/2019
Description: Send us a Text Message.National Expungment Week is coming to an end. The national initiative to help people with low level cannabis charges on their record have them removed. Started by Cage-Free Repair and Equity First Alliance, National Expungement Week has liberated close to 300 people from past charges on their records. One of those people was Mauro Melgar. The Los Angeles native found out about National Expungement Week online back in 2018. Taking a chance, Melgar went to the expungement clinic close to him and started the process of having a past cannabis change removed from his record. Happening 10-years prior, Melgar was arrested with two ounces of cannabis on him. That charge kept him from jobs, housing and more. Now free from that chain, Melgar spoke to CashColorCannabis Podcast about how he found N.E.W., advice for others in his situation and more.
