In 2020, the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department received $104 million in federal coronavirus relief funds after it stated that its employees would be "substantially dedicated" to addressing COVID-19 in the form of public education and breaking up social gatherings. However, in June 2020, in response to a statewide mandate to wear masks in public to address the Covid-19 pandemic, Sheriff Jones said that his deputies would not enforce the mandate. In November 2020, hours before the state was about to announce new stay-at-home restrictions and curfews across much of the state, Jones announced that his department "would not enforce any health or emergency orders related to curfews, staying at home, Thanksgiving or other social gatherings inside or outside the home", or any other orders in effect at the time or in the future, calling emergency health orders "oppressive", "arbitrary" and "unrealistic". In an interview in late November 2020, Dr. Peter Beilenson, the Sacramento County health director, said that Sheriff Jones' lack of enforcement actions had worsened the spread of the coronavirus in the county. In early December 2020, the sheriff's office announced that Jones had tested positive for the virus, and dozens of sheriff's department employees had also tested positive.

In November 2015, Jones announced he would run for U.S. Congress in California's 7th congressional district in 2016. Jones, a Republican, faced incumbent Democrat Ami Bera in the November 2016 general election. Bera defeated Jones in the general election, winning 51% of the vote to Jones's 49%. The margin of victory was 4,802 votes.

Jones is married and has four children. He has served on the Make-A-Wish Foundation Northeastern California and Northern Nevada chapter board of directors since 2014.

Scott Jones was born on September 28, 1968 in Bangkok, Thailand as Robert Scott Jones.
