Definición

  • The concept of legislators having some immunity from legal actions was well established in England and the American colonies before the Revolution. To provide that protection, the Constitution states that members of Congress “shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest …; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place” (Article I, section 6). [Source: The Supreme Court A to Z; Congressional Immunity]
