Sen. Bernie Moreno said Rep. Max Miller should not serve in the House, citing concerns about his daughter’s safety amid domestic-abuse allegations Miller denies. Miller said he would remain in his reelection race and released documents related to the custody dispute.
Moreno said Miller failed basic standards for elected office and described him as a danger to his daughter. Miller denied abusing his former wife and daughter in a video posted Sunday, said he would stay in the race, and released investigative and court documents related to the custody dispute. The allegations have been public for years but recently drew increased scrutiny as the dispute escalated.
Emily Moreno has alleged that Miller scalded, hit and threatened her while they were married; Miller denied those allegations. The article also reports differing accounts of how their daughter suffered a broken collarbone, citing court filings and police reports. A spokesperson for Emily Moreno called Miller’s video “shameful.”
