About Me

It think it might help you to know who I am by telling you who my family is.

I hail from the Holmes family: my mother was Pearl McGee, my Grandmother was Theresa (Holmes, McGee)Zavodski, my Great-Grandmother was Mary Holmes and my Great Great Grandfather was Joseph Sangretta.

I worked for the Tribe for over 20 years and have just recently retired. My goal is to be elected to the Tribal Council. I may be only one voice, but with my knowledge of the organization, honesty, loyalty to the Tribe and determination, I believe I can bring another voice to the Council that believes in communication, accountability and responsibility, both personally and professionally.

It Begins

I'm not really surprised by what has occured, in fact I've been waiting to see just who it would be and as it turns out, it is Andy Jenness. Why do I say this? Well because he has challenged by integrity, which knowing him and working with him on Council before, does not surprise me at all. You can check on the Grand Ronde Tribe site to see what I'm talking about specifically and to see my response.

I know who Andy is tied to, as many other folks do, so the reason behind his challenge is obvious; he wants to try and discredit me before I'm ever nominated. Well, I guess he can try, but he has absolutely no standing other than to put words out there and see if people believe him. I've responded to his challenge and if he pushes it too far, I will give him facts and figures that he will most likely not like very much.

The one thing about me that people should know is that before I offer up a challenge to someone, I already have done my homework and will deal strictly with facts, nothing more or less.

Thanks for listening.

  1. Dakota, you fail to tell your readers that it was you who first challenged my integrity. Your words about me are disparaging, defamatory, and baseless without merit. Furthermore, you clearly demonstrated your double standards.
    Respectfully,
    Andy Jenness
