So she leaves the party that :checks notes: pardoned federal marijuana convictions and requests to review it's status as a schedule 1 drug. :checks notes again: Also the party that just granted $1.6 billion to communities to address addiction and overdose crises.

It's a bold strategy Cotton. 

Sounds like she just knows which audience gives her the best chance at staying relevant.
