As the city council’s representative on the pension fund board of trustees, Jones was directly responsible for the city’s contract with the bank. The contributions, made within days of each other in October 2015, totaled over $7,000.

On December 5, 2017, Representative John Conyers resigned after sexual harassment allegations were made against him and that he had secretly used taxpayer money to settle a harassment claim. A special election was called to replace Conyers and Jones narrowly won the Democratic primary and easily won in the special election.
