Hoeven Honors Service of Grand Forks Police Officer Holte with Senate Floor Speech

WASHINGTON – Senator John Hoeven, along with Senator Kevin Cramer, today spoke on the floor of the U.S. Senate to honor the life and service of Grand Forks Police Officer Cody Holte, who was killed in the line of duty last week.  

“As an officer in Grand Forks and a First Lieutenant in the North Dakota National Guard, Officer Holte served our nation on multiple fronts,” said Hoeven. “Through his leadership, courage, and work ethic, he displayed the best our state has to offer while also helping to ensure our safety and security. Mikey and I extend our deepest condolences to the Holte family including his wife Amanda, son Gunnar, parents Bret and Tracy, sister Alexis, and twin brother Brady. Last Wednesday, North Dakota lost one of its finest."

Hoeven joined the North Dakota delegation in delivering remarks at Officer Holte’s service held at the Ralph Engelstad Arena in Grand Forks on Tuesday, June 2.
