>>4937500 (pb #6303 notable) Pelosi To Block SOTU (img 1 rel)
This anon is on to something F'N YUGE, but I think their theory needs to be tweaked. I have been chasing this same thought train for a while in regard to the SOTU.
Here is rub: Just because both chambers of congress recess to enter into a joint session of congress, does NOT mean the the legislative session is suspended. Therefore we need to modify the theory to hold water. We can do that though, see img 2:
"1. A Congress member is exempted from arrest while attending a session of the body to which the member belongs, excluding an arrest for treason, breach of the peace, or a felony, or;"
a joint session would allow for members of both chambers to be arrested, due to the fact the attendees are NOT attending a session of the body to which they belong.
