Alabama Senator Katie Britt is facing backlash after her State of the Union Rebuttal included a misleading story about a sex trafficking victim. In her speech, Britt suggested that she spoke to a woman in the Del Rio sector of Texas who had been sex trafficked starting at age 12 in the U.S. However, the survivor, Carla Jacinto, clarified that the abuse actually occurred in Mexico during President George W. Bush's term, not under President Biden's border policies.
Britt's remarks have drawn criticism for their inaccuracies, with many accusing her of using the issue for political gain. Despite the fallout, Britt has remained defiant, accusing the liberal media of trying to silence her and divert attention from the real issue of sex trafficking.
