What They Spoke On
Only two headings repeat in what Carson has on the record here, a commemorative joint resolution and the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Everything else appears once, taking in a research week resolution and tributes in Indianapolis.
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.

What Their Votes Add Up To

Where the Words Are
The Congressional Record marks André Carson as speaking in 48 items of business across 43 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.
