A sex trafficking survivor whose story was used by Sen. Katie Britt during her disastrous State of the Union rebuttal called the senator’s characterization of her story “unfair.”  On Thursday, Britt said in her State of the Union rebuttal that during a recent visit to the southern border, she spoke to a woman who was “sex trafficked by the cartels starting at age 12.” Britt blamed President Joe Biden for the woman’s plight. “President Biden’s border crisis is a disgrace.
