I'm researching abortion choice opinion in my state legislature and I want to see where each member of the senate stands on abortion rights, this would include PAC donations to that particular legislator.

They have a good amount of information on most politicians.

Each member of congress/senate, etc., has a personal website where their political agendas are outlined and where they stand on certain issues -- especially in an election year. Start there.
Be wary of politicians who don't state their views clearly. If you're reading their content and are left scratching your head saying, Huh?, there's a reason for that: They don't want you to know that they're not as committed as they say and they want wiggle room down the road.
There are also websites that will give you their voting records, most often more telling and more 'honest' than their sites. I would cross research their sites with their voting records as they can "say" whatever they want; it's their vote that tells all.
Good luck on your search.

your state senators should have a web address. On the sites main page their should be a link to find information as to where they stand on each issue.
E-mailing your senators will not yeild the results your looking for. Whenever you e-mail your senator you get a generic e-mail thanking you for taking the time to send an e-mail.

Check pro-life and pro-choice organizations in your state. By now they should have web sites. It's the 21st century after all. Both sides like to track political voting patterns of officials. So I'd assume they have that info posted.

Best bet is to simply write to him/her and ask this question...specifically.
