I take it to mean they can be served with process papers, ie: You won't be arrested here and now but "...you are on notice to appear in court on such day at such time and oh by the way turnover your passport and don't even consider leaving town. As a matter of fact we think you should wear this ankle bracelt"

Congress members are privledged from arrest when attending sessions in their respective houses Except in the cases of Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace. It seems that the accused could be arrested during session if charged with treason, felony or breach of peace however I think it is highly unlikely.

thats why pelosi won't call the House into session. Being spread all over the country will make arrests more difficult

But, it seems, according to the notes below that Reps and Sens CANNOT be arrested for any crime during the session...
The posted link suggests that a huge, long-standing precedent would need to be overturned just to be able to take them in.
Can some Law Dawg weigh in on this?

NOT a lawfag - my interpretation. If they commit a crime, they can be arrested. If they say something while in session, they can't be arrested for it.
