Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The sentence that uses correct capitalization in this sentence is B.

The most experienced senator of the Republican Party is Senator Hawkins. In this sentence the word senator only needs to be capitalized the second time it is used because it refers to someone's specific title.

The first use of the word senator is as a generic common noun and does not therefore need to be capitalized like a proper noun.
