Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.), who has pushed for carrying a gun in the Capitol, was seen by reporters Tuesday night setting off a metal detector and declining to turn over her bag to the police for inspection.

Another House Republican, Rep. Steve Womack (Ark.), shouted at police to "get back" and "don't touch me."

Walk through, but keep your gun. Problem solved. Who cares if it beeps. The police cannot stop a Congressman on their way to a vote. Speech and Debate Clause

"Article I, Section 6, Clause 1:

The Senators and Representatives shall receive a Compensation for their Services, to be ascertained by Law, and paid out of the Treasury of the United States. They shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place."
