Ohio GOP Sen. Bernie Moreno on Sunday said his former son-in-law, Republican Rep. Max Miller, “should not serve” in Congress because of abuse allegations levied by Moreno’s daughter against Miller.
“As he has admitted privately, Max Miller needs serious psychological help,” Moreno said on X. “He is a danger to my daughter, and I hold my breath every minute he has custody of my granddaughter.”
“He should not serve in the House of Representatives,” Moreno said.
Moreno’s statement came shortly after Miller appeared on a livestream in which he denied allegations of abuse and said he’s staying in his race. “I’m not getting out of this race, and I’m winning in November,” Miller said.
The statement from Moreno marked his first extensive public comment on the abuse allegations that have embroiled Miller for months and that could threaten the congressman’s chances to be reelected to represent Ohio’s 7th District. President Donald Trump won the district by 11 points in 2024, and it has long been considered a solidly safe Republican seat.
