Where the Words Are

The Congressional Record marks John H. Rutherford as speaking in 28 items of business across 16 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.
