Members of Congress are immune from detainment and arrest by law enforcement when traveling to and from, or during the course of their official duties, while in session. This provision was is meant to protect them from delay for petty offenses, so naturally this protection does not extend to high crimes.

Why are congressmen immune from arrest?
This is not true under all circumstances. Congresspersons are arrested from time to time. There is only one situation that I know of where a congressperson cannot be arrested, and I think it has something to do with the congressperson being on his/her way to a session, or maybe to a vote. Of course, this doesn't prevent arrest afterward.
