If a person on the run is arrested in another state, the Governor of that state (or governor's council) can then review the extradition and sign the papers for rendition to the original state.
In Washington DC... the "Governor" effectively is Joe Hidin'.
He can't even tie his shoelaces without help. Old Joe (who is really an actor)... will sign the papers and agree to rendition of the fugitive lawmakers from Washington DC back to Texas. He'll think he's ordering jello for lunch.
Meanwhile, the lawmakers will be back in Texas in a week.
Actually, DC has its own government. "No taxation without representation" remember? DC politics has no more power - or less - in DC than anywhere else. The people of DC elect their representatives they aren't elected by foreign states and sent there from foreign states. That would be a governor without representation.
