What They Spoke On
Only two headings repeat in Jacobs's indexed remarks, a rules relief bill and a procurement bill. Everything else appears once, taking in three people murdered and transgender service members.
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 Sara Jacobs as speaking in 13 items of business across 13 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.
