A Congressman can be arrested for any crime he commits. The only immunity a Congressman has is freedom from arrest inside Congress or going to or coming from Congess if it is in session for charges other than treason, felony or breach of piece. So if there is a warrant out for his arrest he can stay in Congress while it is in session and be free from arrest. But the moment Congress adjourns he is fair game.

∙ 9y agoMembers of congress can be arrested for three crimes. The first crime is contempt of congress which is the obstruction of the workings of the United States. The second crime a member of congress can be arrested for is inherent contempt which occurs when the member involves only the chamber concerned. The third crime is crimes against state and Federal Laws.

What happens a bill is vetoed by the President?
When a bill that has passed both Houses of Congress is presented to the President, he/she can do three things:Sign it into law.Return it to the House where it originated with his/her objections (veto it).Do nothing.Once presented with a bill, the President has ten days not counting Sundays in which to either sign it or veto it. If he/she does neither within those ten days, and at the end of the ten days Congress is still in session, the bill automatically becomes a law. If the President neither signs nor vetoes the bill within the ten days, and at the end of the ten days Congress is no longer in session, the bill automatically dies. To allow a bill passed by Congress during the last ten days of its session to die by doing nothing with it is known as a pocket veto.If the President returns the bill with his/her objections, Congress can modify it and pass a revised version, which the President again would choose to sign or veto. However, if at least two thirds of each House of Congress votes to pass the version that the President rejected, it becomes law anyway; that is known as overriding the President's veto.
