Senators seem more removed from local politics because they

A senator is a person who works in the government. In the United States, senators are elected by voters to represent them in a state or federal senate. Each state in the US elects two senators who serve 6-year terms in Washington, DC, where they pass laws and vote on policies. Other countries have senators as well, either elected of appointed. They always seem to be detached from local politics because they serve the entire states and all its citizens.
