U.S. Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), chair of the House GOP Conference, announced Elevate PAC’s endorsement of Republican U.S. Senate nominee Katie Britt.

Stefanik’s Elevate PAC supports the candidacies of Republican women seeking election to Congress.

In a statement Thursday announcing her PAC’s endorsement of Britt, Stefanik said the Alabama U.S. Senate hopeful would take aim at Democratic leadership’s “radical policies.”

“I am proud to endorse Katie Britt to be Alabama’s next U.S. senator,” said Stefanik in a release. “Katie is an America First warrior who will be a crucial voice for Alabama in the Senate, where she will stand up against Joe Biden and Chuck Schumer’s radical policies that have created crisis after crisis.

“I am proud to add Katie to the ranks of strong, E-PAC-endorsed GOP women on the ballot this November, and I encourage all Alabama families to vote for Katie Britt in the critical mission to take back the Senate and save America.”

Britt expressed gratitude to Stefanik over the endorsement and praised the parents who have taken to political action in an effort to “preserve the American Dream.”

“I’m grateful to Congresswoman Stefanik for her support and endorsement,” said Britt. “The Republican Party is the party of parents and hardworking families, who are getting crushed by the unchecked consequences of one-party Democratic rule in Joe Biden’s Washington, D.C. As November 8 quickly approaches, moms and dads across our nation are stepping up to preserve the American Dream for our children and our children’s children.”

“Together, we will save the country we know and love.”

Elevate PAC has endorsed 23 female Republican candidates in open and challenger congressional races. With the PAC’s endorsement of Britt, Stefanik’s political action committee has endorsed three GOP women seeking election to the upper chamber of Congress.

Britt will face Democrat Will Boyd in the Nov. 8 general election for the seat held by retiring U.S. Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Tuscaloosa).
