Since delivering the GOP rebuttal to Biden's State of the Union address on Thursday, Britt has faced severe criticism. Britt argued that in her rebuttal she made clear that the woman had experienced sex trafficking years earlier during her childhood, not under the Biden administration. In her rebuttal, Britt references "a woman" who "had been sex trafficked by the cartels starting at the age of 12." During the speech, she did not clarify that the crime happened decades ago and that the woman was no longer being sex trafficked. The victim, Karla Jacinto Romero, experienced sex trafficking from 2004 to 2008 in Mexico.

With her Republican rebuttal to President Joe Biden's State of the Union address on Thursday, Britt became a target for fact-checkers and late-night comedians. AdvertisementWhile describing the devastating circumstances of the woman's case, Britt seemed to imply that it took place under Biden's administration. President Biden's border policies are a disgrace," Britt said. The catch is that the case Britt referred to happened in Mexico during the second George W. Bush administration.

Republican Sen. Katie Britt of Alabama is under fire for using what appears to be a sex trafficking victim's experience from the early 2000s to condemn President Joe Biden's current border policy. Britt seemingly attempted to present the anecdote as a damning example of Biden's border management. "President Biden's border policies are a disgrace. Britt's implication that Jacinto Romero divulged her experiences privately is not borne out by publicly available information. Though sex trafficking has taken place in the U.S. under the Biden administration, Jacinto Romero's sex-trafficking story is not an example of it.
