Can't seem to Query an ACF

Hi all,

I have tried for hours trying to get a custom field to query in my script and nothing shows. What am I doing wrong?

<?php
function jobs_search_results() {
       ob_start();

       $jobs_search_results_args = array (
           'meta_query' => array (
               array (
                   'key' => 'client_state',
                   'value' => 'Alabama'
               )
           )
         );

       $jobs_search_results_query = new WP_Query( $jobs_search_results_args );

       if ( $jobs_search_results_query->have_posts() ) : while($jobs_search_results_query->have_posts()) : $jobs_search_results_query->the_post();

       the_title();

       endwhile;
              $sc = ob_get_contents();

       	/* Clean buffer */
       	ob_end_clean();

       	/* Return the content as usual */
       	return $sc;
       endif;

       // Restore original Post Data

}
add_shortcode( 'jobs-search-results', 'jobs_search_results' );
