NumbersUSA
Site gives grades to legislators with regard to immigration issues.
There's some nuance to this. You click on a name and it breaks down many of their votes. Someone like Rand Paul gets good grades in some areas like boosting border security, but in some areas his grades are poor because he didn't support an amendment or something - usually this was one of his stances where it was a poison pill or did not respect process or attached to something that would increase the debt or whatever.
On balance, it would be a disaster if it was Thune or Cornyn and Rick Scott is not much better. He supported DACA for example. From an immigration perspective, many better choices than Rick Scott if you want a strict, hardline approach.

Yep, which is one of the many reasons we must replace the 2 Democrat senators in Georgia, both graded -F aka 0% which means they voted for every measure that favors illegal immigration and voted against every issue that would limit illegal immigration.
