Sen. Katie Britt defends citing sex trafficking victim’s story to slam Biden, as ‘SNL’ tackles her speech

Alabama Sen. Katie Britt is defending how she described the experience of a woman who was the victim of human trafficking — an account Britt pointed to when criticizing President Joe Biden's border policies as part of the official Republican response to his State of the Union speech. Despite what Britt implied, the abuse the woman endured occurred more than 15 years ago in Mexico, rather than more recently in the U.S., according to multiple news reports.
