Where the Words Are
The Congressional Record marks John B. Larson as speaking in 42 items of business across 38 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.
