Doesn’t he have his income secured forever now?

No, a senator has to serve five years to be eligible for a pension. He's been in office since January 2018.

Since a senator's term is for 6 years, even one term senators receive pension benefits...just sayin'

True, but Jones was elected in a special election to fill Sessions seat when he became AG. That term expires in 2021 so he won’t have served five years so no pension. The congressional pension isn’t as generous as many think anyway. They have multiple other ways of getting rich of course. A senator has about a $3 million a year budget to run their office, you can bet a good portion of that is skimmed off, not to mention all the outside sources funneling money to friends and family Hunter Biden style.

He ain’t gonna starve
