Should members of Congress, like presidents, be exempt from investigation and prosecution during their terms?

I don’t like but can see why presidents, limited to two terms, are exempt. Throughout American history, opposing parties ( = the ‘outcumbents’ ) have been so hostile to incumbents that they would have been endlessly investigating and filing lawsuits against sitting presidents.

If incumbent members of Congress were similarly exempt, and if they were to serve multiple terms, statutes of limitations would expire before investigations or prosecutions could start.

@yvilletom PLEASE REMOVE YOUR democrat post from our Green Party Group the CONSTITUTION states the HOUSE MAY expel a member for any reason ....Trafficant of Ohio was put on trial by the Speaker defended himself a former Sheriff who was proven to take bribes and was expelled a decade ago....Alcee Hastings was impeached and convicted by the Senate removed from the federal appeals courts for Florida then immediately won a seat in Congress as a Black man ....He could have been refused his seat due to impeachment & conviction but the HOUSE IS FULL OF CRIMINALS taking bribes so they protect each other ALL THE MORE REASON TO ELECT GREENS and jail demonRATs & rethuglicans

@Larry68Feminist I remember the Alcee Hastings affair. Thanks for the other info.

What are Green Party candidates proposing that will eliminate bribery? What other reforms are they proposing?
