Kristopher (Kris) Jones is Executive Vice President and Head of Government Relations at Fox Corporation, where he leads the company’s legislative, regulatory, and policy strategy in Washington DC. A long-time advocate for integrity in public affairs, he is a perfect match to serve on the Bryce Harlow Foundation board, which he joined at the beginning of 2025.
“Joining the board was an easy decision,” Kris says. “I was fortunate to meet Bryce Harlow II early in my career and have long admired him for following in the footsteps of his father and grandfather as a standard-bearer for Washington lobbying.” For Kris, the Foundation embodies the very best of advocacy, with its board members and supporters demonstrating by example the power and importance of advocacy built on credibility, professionalism, and trust. “I recently read the new reprint of Bryce Harlow’s essay on Corporate Representation, which is timeless in its principles around integrity in lobbying,” Kris said. “I shared it with my team at FOX as an example of how lobbying should work.”
The mentorship aspect of the Foundation’s Fellowship also resonates with Kris. Having benefited from mentors who gave him opportunities and guidance early in his career, Kris feels strongly about paying that forward. He was recently paired with his first Foundation Fellow mentee, Ethan Miller, and sees the relationship as a chance to share guidance on how to be patient, seize opportunities, and build a reputation for trust.
Looking ahead, Kris hopes the Foundation continues its long track record of producing principled leaders who understand that lasting influence comes only when people view you as credible and trustworthy. Through his service on the Board, Kris is committed to helping ensure that Bryce Harlow’s legacy—and its guiding values—remain central to advocacy in Washington for years to come.
