A Democratic House nominee in California, who has made affordability a key issue in his campaign and is backed by a top Bernie Sanders group, is worth up to tens of millions of dollars.<\/p>\n

Eric Jones, who is running in California\u2019s 4th Congressional District, reported between $18 and $86 million in assets, according to campaign finance disclosures,<\/a> along with a salary of $8 million.<\/p>\n

Along with other holdings, Jones owns a $4.6 million Napa home, which includes a pool, with furnishings and artwork estimated at between $393,000 to $578,000, a Fox News Digital review found.<\/p>\n

His evaluation contrasts sharply with his populist campaign platform, where he has painted himself as a relatable figure who has also grappled with concerns about affordability.<\/p>\n

“The cost of living continues to rise,” Jones said in an April campaign video.<\/a><\/p>\n

“I\u2019m running for Congress because I know what it feels like to do everything right and still struggle\u2026 I will never take a dollar from a corporate PAC, I will never take a dime from a lobbyist, and I will never trade a stock while I serve you in Congress.”<\/p>\n

Throughout his campaign, Jones has highlighted his family\u2019s struggle with financial stability. He grew up in a military family and had a disabled father. According to Jones, the family also struggled to overcome medical debt, relying on Medicaid<\/a> and food stamps.<\/p>\n

On his website, Jones has listed three main priorities: ending corruption, lowering the cost of living<\/a> and resource sustainability in government. His stances have attracted endorsements from progressive groups like Indivisible and Our Revolution,\u00a0organizations with ties to progressive Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., who has repeatedly attacked millionaires and billionaires throughout his career despite being a millionaire himself.<\/p>\n

“A Congress of millionaires will legislate for their corporate investments. A Congress from the working class will legislate for the people,” Our Revolution posted on X in 2022.<\/p>\n

In a 2025 post, Our Revolution shared a graphic attacking the number of millionaires in Congress. Despite several posts against millionaires and the wealthy, the group gave him a glowing endorsement.<\/p>\n

“Our Revolution believes in leaders who fight for working people with integrity and courage,” the endorsement said. “Eric Jones is one of those leaders \u2014 and we\u2019re proud to stand with him as he brings a people-powered movement to Congress in 2026.”<\/p>\n

Jones\u2019 wealth came from his career in investing. Shortly after graduating from Yale, he joined Dragoneer Investment Group in San Francisco in 2013. The group is a venture capital group that invests in technology and high-growth companies like ByteDance and Alibaba, a pair of Chinese businesses with deep ties to the Chinese Communist Party.<\/p>\n

By the age of 27 in 2017, Jones had become the group\u2019s first non-founding partner. During his 12 years with the group, Dragoneer exploded in value, going from managing $180 million in assets to $24 billion.<\/p>\n

Jones listed an $8 million salary with the group from last year in his campaign financial disclosure.<\/p>\n

The extravagances of his roughly 3,000-square-foot home were featured by Architectural Digest in a June 9 home tour<\/a> as part of a profile piece on his wife, who works for an architecture firm as a designer.<\/p>\n

Among his many assets, Jones\u2019 furnishing collection includes a wall-hung ceramic sculpture worth up to $60,000, a “Polly chair” estimated at somewhere between $10,000 and $25,000 and a column coffee table worth $6,000.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now, as a candidate, Jones has campaigned<\/a> against corporate influence in politics and a system that he argues is rigged in favor of larger corporations. He has identified that kind of structure as a key part of his plan to address affordability.<\/p>\n

“Rent, groceries, utilities, health care childcare \u2014 everything costs more while giant corporations post record profits and pay little or nothing in taxes,” Jones states on his website.<\/a><\/p>\n

“That\u2019s not an accident. It\u2019s a system rigged to work for the people at the top.”<\/p>\n

When approached about his personal wealth, Jones said he doesn’t believe his personal wealth clashes with a message of affordability.<\/p>\n

“I grew up poor in rural America with a veteran father fighting medical debt and opioid addiction. I built businesses, created jobs and achieved the American Dream \u2013 I’m lucky that this country gave me that opportunity, and I’ll never forget where I came from. We should have leaders who’ve built something and know what medical debt feels like, not career politicians who’ve gotten rich serving Big Pharma and the insurance lobby. Every family in this district deserves that same shot at the American Dream, that’s why I’m running,” Jones said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Having placed in the top two candidates in the primary<\/a>, Jones will face off against incumbent Rep. Mike Thompson, D-Calif., in the state\u2019s Nov. 3 general election<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
