Republican Senator Calls for Congressman’s Resignation Amid Abuse Allegations
Republican Senator Calls for Congressman’s Resignation Amid Abuse Allegations

Republican Senator Bernie Moreno publicly called for his ex-son-in-law, Congressman Max Miller, to resign from Congress amid allegations of domestic and child abuse. In a statement on Sunday, the Ohio senator expressed that if basic standards of character are required to hold elected office, Miller fails them. The senator also emphasized that Miller needs professional help to address a 'clear pattern of abuse' and should not continue endangering others until he receives such assistance.

The public scrutiny has intensified the race in Ohio’s seventh congressional district. Democrats are viewing it as an opportunity to gain a seat, while Republicans have been relatively silent so far. Emily Moreno, Max Miller’s ex-wife and a conservative policy adviser, shared that their two-year-old daughter was caught in the middle of this contentious situation.

In his statement, Senator Moreno also highlighted how difficult it has been to witness the situation unfold publicly while an innocent toddler is involved. Both Emily Moreno and Miller’s former girlfriend Stephanie Grisham have made allegations against him, each contributing to the complexity of the case.
