I have a C-Corp client that just started business in Nov 2021.  I have read that you can elect to not get taxed on up to $250,000 as long as it stays in the Retained Earnings account.  Is this true and if so, how do I make this election in Lacerte?

Not true.

$250,000 Retained Earnings is deemed to be held for reasonable needs of the business and not subject to accumulated earnings tax. Totally different from income tax.
