Elise Stefanik (R-NY) is boosting Republican women candidates ahead of next year\u2019s midterm elections and appeared at an event Tuesday with the eight women her political action committee has so far endorsed for 2022 races.<\/p>\n<p>Stefanik told Breitbart News in an interview after the event, which took place at the Republican National Committee headquarters in Washington, DC, that she believes nothing terrifies Democrats and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) more \u201cthan strong, outspoken, conservative women.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThere is nothing more terrifying to a Democrat than conservative women. There is nothing more terrifying to Nancy Pelosi than strong, outspoken, conservative women. We saw in the 2020 election cycle that Republican women led the way in flipping a number of seats, and, remember, this was sort of a sleeper win for the House in the election cycle,\u201d Stefanik said.<\/p>\n<p>Stefanik, the House GOP Conference chair, has largely been credited with the success women saw in flipping seats to red in 2020 after E-PAC, her leadership political action committee she established in 2018,&nbsp;<a class=\"x5l\" title=\"This external link will open in a new window\" href=\"https:\/\/elevate-pac.com\/our-candidates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">endorsed<\/a>&nbsp;30 women in 2020 and saw 18 victories out of those endorsements. Republicans in general outperformed Democrats with a stunning 15 seat&nbsp;<a class=\"x5l\" title=\"This external link will open in a new window\" href=\"https:\/\/apps.npr.org\/elections20-interactive\/#\/house\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">flips<\/a>&nbsp;in 2020 compared to Democrats\u2019 three.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey thought Nancy Pelosi was going to pick up seats, when, in fact, Republicans won 15 seats, 11 of which were flipped by Republican women. We are building on that success in 2020 and have strong conservative women who are running in the 2022 election to fire Nancy Pelosi once and for all,\u201d Stefanik said.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"8.4295532646048\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83d\udea8\ud83d\udea8\ud83d\udea8<\/p>\n<p>Meet our <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/EPAC?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#EPAC<\/a> 2022 Majority Makers!  <\/p>\n<p>These <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/GOPWomen?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#GOPWomen<\/a> are fired up &amp; ready to build on the historic success of 2020 &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FirePelosi?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FirePelosi<\/a> once and for all! \ud83d\udc81\ud83c\udffb\u200d\u2640\ufe0f\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8\ud83d\udc81\ud83c\udffb\u200d\u2640\ufe0f\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/FFLAhWkUJP\">pic.twitter.com\/FFLAhWkUJP<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Elise Stefanik (@EliseStefanik) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/EliseStefanik\/status\/1465773422584254466?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 30, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>A top issue for voters now, Stefanik pointed out, is inflation, a&nbsp;<a title=\"This external link will open in a new window\" href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/economy\/2021\/11\/23\/inflation-expectations-rise-to-near-record-in-mid-atlantic-manufacturing-survey\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">growing<\/a>&nbsp;issue in the country as consumer confidence&nbsp;<a title=\"This external link will open in a new window\" href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/economy\/2021\/11\/30\/bidenflation-sends-consumer-confidence-stumbling-to-9-month-low\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">plunges<\/a>&nbsp;and the Biden administration&nbsp;<a title=\"This external link will open in a new window\" href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/11\/25\/thanksgiving-table-setter-a-guide-to-the-behemoth-build-back-better-act\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">continues<\/a>&nbsp;to promote a string of multitrillion-dollar spending bills, the latest being the $1.7 trillion Build Back Better Act, the social component to President Joe Biden\u2019s infrastructure agenda.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I talk to women, and just generally voters in my district, on every single issue, Democrats have failed them,\u201d Stefanik said. \u201cWhether it\u2019s inflation \u2014 they\u2019re seeing that Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi\u2019s failed policies and reckless spending have led to historic inflation, and that hurts families the worst.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stefanik, who in 2014, at age 30, was the youngest woman on record elected to Congress, recently had her first child and said that in addition to the economy, education reform is a hot issue that resonates specifically with parents, especially as school boards and parents are seen at odds on a national stage over issues like teaching critical race theory, masking children, and transgender policies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m a new mom. I have a three-month-old, Sam, and education was very important to me as I grew up, and it was something that my parents instilled in my brother and I, giving us the best educational opportunities, and that\u2019s what I want for Sam, and I\u2019m already thinking about that and he\u2019s only three months old,\u201d Stefanik explained. \u201cI think moms and dads want to make sure their kids get the best education possible to succeed in America \u2026 and what we\u2019re seeing is this far-left agenda being pushed through national organizations, whether it\u2019s teaching of the critical race theory in teacher training programs or integrating it into curriculums. We\u2019re also seeing school districts withhold curriculums from parents, which, by law, they\u2019re required to have parental engagement plans to make sure that parents are able to have transparency into what their kids are being taught in schools.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stefanik noted education policies gained attention after local governments forced virtual learning on K\u201312 students last year and \u201creally opened parents\u2019 eyes to the failures\u201d of some school districts. She indicated that the issue was reinforced by the success Virginia Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin (R) \u2014 who made education a centerpiece of his campaign \u2014 saw in his gubernatorial race.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou saw parents really get engaged in this process, and these weren\u2019t typically political families,\u201d Stefanik observed.<\/p>\n<p>This next election cycle\u2019s first slate of E-PAC-backed candidates, who all appeared with Stefanik on Tuesday, are Monica De La Cruz (Texas), Karoline Leavitt (New Hampshire), Esther Joy King (Illinois), Lisa Scheller (Pennsylvania), Amanda Adkins (Kansas), Jeanine Lawson (Virginia), Jen Kiggans (Virginia), and April Becker (Nevada).<\/p>\n<p><em>Write to Ashley Oliver at <a href=\"mailto:aoliver@breitbart.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">aoliver@breitbart.com<\/a>.
