What They Spoke On

Government funding, healthcare, resolutions of congressional disapproval, the SAVE America Act and terminating a declared national emergency all appear three times. Two appropriations measures and the removal of United States forces follow at two each.

The business the Congressional Record printed their remarks under, counted, with the chamber's own procedure left out. It is what was before the chamber, which is not always what the member was addressing.

Where the Words Are

The Congressional Record marks Amy Klobuchar as speaking in 158 items of business across 80 sitting days of this Congress.

Many of those appearances are procedural: yielding time, a request to revise and extend, a call for the yeas and nays. The count comes from the Record's own speaker tagging, which is not complete, so a member may have spoken more often than it shows.
