WASHINGTON, D.C. — In two weeks, a familiar figure at the Federal Communications Commission will be back at the agency — this time as Chief of Staff to Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel.
As of mid-April, Narda Jones will return to the FCC and assume the role.
Rosenworcel’s acting Chief of Staff, Travis Litman, will soon be departing her office.
“At a time when Congress has tasked the FCC with so many responsibilities, I am excited to welcome back Narda Jones to ensure we can meet our mission to connect everyone, everywhere,” Rosenworcel said. “Her unique combination of skill, expertise, and record of service will be a major asset for my team and the agency as a whole.”
Jones rejoins the Commission from the White House, where she was the Director of Legislative Affairs for the Office of Science and Technology Policy. Prior to that, she was the Senior Technology Policy Advisor for the Democratic staff of the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Transportation and Science. Jones started working in the Senate for Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.) in 2014, after spending over a decade in senior roles in the Commission’s Wireline and International Bureaus.
Jones also previously worked at the Minnesota Attorney General’s Office and the Minneapolis City Attorney’s Office. In addition, she was part of the inaugural class of the AmeriCorps Legal Fellowship program.
In a related move, another familiar face, Priscilla Delgado Argeris, will serve as Chief Legal Advisor. She joins the Chairwoman’s office from Meta Platforms Inc., where she has focused on spectrum policy issues for the company across the globe. From 2012-2015, she served as then-Commissioner Rosenworcel’s Legal Advisor and Senior Legal Advisor covering wireline and wireless issues for the office during her tenure. Prior to joining the FCC, Argeris worked at Wiley Rein, where she focused regulatory and litigation matters involving federal and state communications law.
