As executive director of the Arkansas Regional Innovation Hub, he helped launch a statewide effort to manufacture personal protective equipment during the COVID-19 pandemic. He also served on the Arkansas Economic Development Commission’s Division of Science and Technology board.

In 2022, 314 Action Fund was proud to support Chris when he became the first African American nominated for Governor of Arkansas. Now, he’s running for Congress to bring the same steadfast commitment to serve the people of AR-02 and polling shows him within the margin of error against GOP Rep. French Hill.

National Democrats recently named Chris Jones a “Red-to-Blue” candidate, a distinction for those running in the most competitive House races. Record high Democratic turnout in the primary and surging voter enthusiasm among Democrats puts Chris on strong footing to flip this seat in November. Will you donate today to support Chris’ campaign to flip AR-02 and help Democrats retake House control?
