If true, she should be removed from office if there was any misconduct, and prosecuted if there was criminal activity. If not, there's a problem within the government. If you're wiretapping Congresscritters, dems or reps, there better be a good reason.

In a self-governing republic, Congressmen should get no more or less deference in that regard, compared with "Joe Citizen."

The only perks that Congressmen get in that regard is freedom from arrest going to session, and for what they say in session (which is obviously not a "surveillance" issue, since statements in session are akin to making public pronouncement).
