 Democratic Governor Roy Cooper's only chief of staff during his two terms is leaving her post in the final months of the administration for a move to the private sector. Christy Jones will step down from the job overseeing Cooper's office in mid-August. Julia White, who has worked closely with Cooper since his time as attorney general, will succeed Jones. Like White, Jones' tenure with Cooper dates back to him being attorney general when she was chief of staff in the Department of Justice for over a decade. You're listening to NCN News.
