\"Congressman<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

Several Democratic <\/span>members<\/span> of Congress are requesting the House Ethics Committee investigate their colleague, Congressman Max Miller (R-OH), over allegations that he assaulted his ex-wife, Emily Moreno, and possibly injured their child.<\/p>

\u201cThe recent reports of domestic violence and child abuse against Representative Max Miller are deeply disturbing, and Congress can\u2019t ignore them. Allegations of violence against women and children have to be met with the utmost seriousness.\u00a0We therefore call on the House Committee on Ethics to swiftly and thoroughly investigate these allegations,\u201d said a statement by the 96-member Democratic Women\u2019s Caucus chairwoman Leger Fernandez (D-NM), and vice chairs Hillary Scholten (D-MI) and Emilia Sykes (D-OH).<\/p>\n

Their calls for a formal probe into the embattled Congressman follow the publication of a July 18 profile in Mother Jones<\/em> that drew from thousands of pages of public records alleging numerous episodes of misconduct. As I wrote in the story:<\/p>\n

\n

The summary of the Zoom meeting and investigative report are among more than 2,000 pages of court filings and police reports pertaining to Miller that\u00a0Mother Jones<\/em>\u00a0obtained through public records requests. The trove of documents contains allegations of drug use by Miller, misogyny and verbal abuse, and violent behavior against multiple women. The filings also include evidence that Miller implicitly threatened his ex-father-in-law, Sen. Bernie Moreno.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Some of the allegations were documented in a police report regarding an investigation into potential child abuse after Miller\u2019s daughter wound up with a broken collarbone.<\/p>\n

\n

Neither the child\u2019s father, Rep. Max Miller (R-Ohio), nor mother, conservative policy adviser Emily Moreno, admitted to knowing what caused their daughter\u2019s injury or that it occurred while their daughter was under their care. Miller\u2019s primary theory was that the bruising resembled marks from a seat belt. Moreno, who discovered the bruises and took the child to an emergency room, suggested the cause may have been something more sinister. Records of the investigation into potential child abuse show that Moreno told detectives that Miller had previously thrown hot water at her, shoved her, and held a gun to her head; therefore, she couldn\u2019t rule out that Miller caused their daughter\u2019s fracture. Moreover, a child protection specialist reviewing the incident had characterized the bruising near the fracture as resembling a \u201chandprint.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The police investigation into possible child abuse was ultimately \u201cunsubstantiated.\u201d That means there was not enough evidence to support a finding of neglect or abuse.<\/p>

Though Miller repeatedly declined to answer questions from Mother Jones,<\/em> he has elsewhere denied ever being violent towards women.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery woman and child deserves to live free from fear of violence, especially within the sanctity of their own home, and we will not stop fighting until that\u2019s the reality,\u201d wrote the leaders of the Democratic Women\u2019s Caucus in a statement first provided to Mother Jones.<\/em><\/p>\n

The caucus was joined in calling for the investigation by several lawmakers. Rep. Sam Liccardo, a California Democrat, wrote on X Wednesday, \u201cAllegations that Max Miller abused his wife and child demand an immediate House Ethics Committee investigation. Congress must never serve as a safe harbor for abusers.\u201d<\/p>\n

He was joined by Rep. Gwen Moore, a Wisconsin Democrat who has previously spoken about surviving domestic violence, told Mother Jones,<\/em> \u201cThe domestic abuse allegations against my colleague, Rep. Max Miller, are disturbing.\u201d She added, \u201cI am especially concerned about the claims of abuse against his 2-year-old daughter whose collarbone was broken. Every child deserves to feel safe in their home, and that is the responsibility of all investigative authorities involved.\u201d<\/p>\n

No Republican members of Congress have yet called for an investigation into Miller\u2014including Miller\u2019s former father-in-law, Sen. Bernie Moreno. <\/p>
