What They Spoke On

Little repeats in Scott's indexed remarks. A resolution disapproving an action of the District of Columbia leads at three, then pairs on the Department of Homeland Security, a designation resolution and a voter eligibility bill. Single remarks reach further.

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 Rick Scott as speaking in 81 items of business across 51 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.
