Jones returned to working as an intelligence analyst for United States Africa Command in Germany. In 2008, she joined the Defense Intelligence Agency, where she specialized in Latin American topics; ultimately she became a special adviser to the deputy director.
In November 2016, she moved to the Executive Office of the President to serve under the Office of the United States Trade Representative. Having previously served under presidents of both parties, Jones continued in her role during the Trump administration until June 2017, when she left her role, telling HuffPost, “The type of people that were brought in to be public servants were interested in neither the public nor the service”.
That, to me, was a sign that I’m going to have to serve in a different way. She returned to San Antonio to run for Congress, living in the house where she grew up.
