What They Spoke On
A Medal of Sacrifice bill leads Scanlon's indexed remarks at three, and a heading on history follows at two. Everything else appears once, taking in an amendment she offered and investment from abroad.
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 Mary Gay Scanlon as speaking in 25 items of business across 19 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.
