Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason for this is due to the fact that senators equally represent each state, and are 1. registered to live in the state they represent, and 2. have to meet with peoples such as boards of education, county governments, and the Governor of the state to make decisions in the ideal interests of their personal state and the United States as a whole.
