Sen. Britt cites misleading border trafficking story in State of the Union rebuttal
• Katie Britt, Republican senator from Alabama, told misleading story about sex trafficking victim in rebuttal to Biden's State of the Union
• Britt blamed Biden border policies for trafficking story of Karla Jacinto Romero, but Jacinto's story happened entirely in Mexico
• Jacinto was kidnapped at age 12 in Mexico City in 2002, trafficked for 4 years, and rescued in Mexico in 2006
• Jacinto still lives in Mexico, has not lived in US or sought asylum, so her story does not relate to US border policy
• Britt had met Jacinto in Texas in 2023 but falsely implied her experiences happened under Biden policies in the US
