What They Spoke On
A pay bill for homeland defenders leads Strong's indexed remarks at three, and a property bill follows at two. Everything else appears once, taking in a retiring lieutenant general and a deputy sheriff in Alabama.
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.
- Pay Our Homeland Defenders Act3
- Defending American Property Abroad Act of 20262

Where the Words Are
The Congressional Record marks Dale W. Strong as speaking in 17 items of business across 15 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.
