What They Spoke On
Puerto Rico is the subject of nearly everything Hernández has on the record here. The island's energy crisis leads at four, and a heading on the murder of women there accounts for two. The rest are single remarks honoring public servants and veterans from the territory.
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 Pablo José Hernández as speaking in 73 items of business across 47 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.
