Saturday Night Live spoofed Britt’s speech and her misrepresentation of the sex trafficking story.

Sen. Katie Britt, R-Al., denied the allegation that she misrepresented the experience of a sex-trafficking survivor to attack Biden's border policy.

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."I very clearly said I spoke to a woman who told me about when she was trafficked when she was 12. So I didn't say a teenager. I didn't say a young woman — a grown woman, a woman who was trafficked when she was 12," Britt said on"Fox News Sunday.
