A relative political newcomer, Chambers finished a surprising close third in an open primary for a seat in Congress last year, narrowly missing the two-person runoff. That campaign attracted celebrity donors including Hollywood stars Susan Sarandon and Milla Jovovich,, who were drawn to Chambers’s broadly progressive politics: raising the minimum wage, healthcare reform, and—yes—drug policy reform, including marijuana legalization.
