New York Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik is backing three Republican women attempting to flip seats red in competitive districts as early voting begins Saturday in Nevada.

Stefanik’s political action committee, E-PAC, which works to elect more Republican women to Congress, has endorsed Carolina Serrano, Annie Black and April Becker, who are challenging Democratic incumbents in Nevada. E-PAC has raised more than $3 million to back GOP female candidates. (RELATED: Trump May Have Already Settled On A Running Mate For 2024: REPORT)

Stefanik is backing Serrano to target incumbent Democratic Rep. Dina Titus, who has held the seat in Nevada’s 1st Congressional District since 2013.

“Nevada is a key swing state, and with Carolina Serrano on the ballot, Republicans have the opportunity to flip the First Congressional District to help take back the House and fire Nancy Pelosi,” Stefanik told TheDCNF. “Just last cycle, Carolina helped lead the Latinos for Trump organization in Nevada, which played a key role in growing record support among Latino voters for President Trump and our conservative policies.”

President Joe Biden received about 61.5% of the district’s vote in the 2020 presidential election whereas former President Donald Trump received about 36.4%, according to Ballotpedia, but after redistricting, the seat is rated as a Democratic “Toss-Up” by Cook Political Report.

“I look forward to working side-by-side with Congresswoman Stefanik to restore common sense, safety, energy independence, our basic liberties, and stop the invasion at the southern border when I’m elected to Congress this November,” Serrano told TheDCNF. (RELATED: ‘Life Hasn’t Improved’: Hispanic GOP Candidate Says Democrats Have Made Things Worse For Latino Voters)

Stefanik is also looking to unseat Democrat Rep. Steven Horsford, who has held the seat in Nevada’s 4th Congressional District since 2019. The race is also rated as a Democratic Toss-Up by Cook Political Report.

“The energy on the ground in Nevada is undeniable, as Republicans have a massive opportunity to turn Nevada red both in the U.S. Senate race and for Congress. I know we can flip the 4th, and I’m the candidate to do it,” Annie Black, who is running to topple Horsford, told TheDCNF. “I’m grateful for the early backing of Elise Stefanik and for the support from hundreds of grassroots supporters across the district.”

Lastly, Stefanik is backing April Becker’s efforts to unseat Democrat Rep. Susie Lee, who has been in office since 2019 in Nevada’s 3rd Congressional District.

“April Becker is a mom that put herself through law school, started a successful business, and now wants to give back to her state and country,” Stefanik said. “April will help us stop the out-of-control spending, rising inflation, and the reckless Biden agenda.”

“Taking back the House runs through Nevada and E-PAC is leading the way helping to elect conservatives,” Becker said. “Susie Lee has told voters she won’t apologize for the higher prices they are paying and voters won’t have to apologize for sending her and Nancy Pelosi packing come this November.”

Stefanik has endorsed 20 other candidates for the 2022 election cycle including Connie Conway in California’s 22nd Congressional District and Mayra Flores in Texas’ 34th Congressional District.

Nevada’s primary is June 14. Titus, Lee and Horsford did not immediately reply to TheDCNF’s comment request.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
