Could a person, who's a current sitting Congressperson, have a spouse run for president? And if that person won, would the Congressperson have to step down?

There's nothing prohibiting someone running for President or serving as President if they are married to an incumbent or prospective member of Congress and vice versa.

It's actually already happened: Bill Clinton was President when Hillary Clinton was elected and sworn in to the U.S. Senate. Bill was finishing up his second term as President, so he was still serving in the White House for only the first 17 days of Hillary's time in the Senate. But it wouldn't have been an issue if their terms had overlapped at any point.

Was Hillary a senator while first lady?

Yes, she was a Senator for her last two weeks as First Lady. She was elected to the Senate in November 2000 (the same election that Al Gore lost to George W. Bush), took her Senate seat on January 3, 2001, and President Clinton left office on January 20, 2001.

So would you have referred to Hillary as First Lady-Senator Clinton?

She was just addressed as “Senator Clinton”. First Lady is a position that has grown in importance and influence throughout American history, but there’s no actual, specific job of “First Lady”. It’s definitely not mentioned in any way in the Constitution, and there’s not any sort of formal title or honorific that is used to address First Ladies.
