Senator Bernie Moreno (R-OH) issued a public statement on Sunday demanding the resignation of Representative Max Miller (R-OH), his former son-in-law. The call for resignation comes in response to ongoing domestic abuse allegations brought against Miller by Moreno’s daughter.

According to the Washington Examiner, the conflict escalated after Miller publicly claimed that his ex-wife had been struggling with "significant mental health challenges." Miller’s comments were interpreted by Moreno as an attempt to discredit the abuse allegations leveled against him. In a statement posted to the social media platform X, Moreno defended his daughter and asserted that Miller is in need of "serious psychological help."

While both Fox News and the Washington Examiner report the core demand for resignation and the call for psychological intervention, the Washington Examiner provides additional context regarding the motivation behind the statement. The Examiner notes that Moreno’s remarks were a direct response to Miller’s attempt to characterize his ex-wife’s mental state. Fox News reports the demand for resignation and the call for help more concisely, focusing on the immediate political fallout without detailing the specific back-and-forth regarding the daughter's mental health claims. Neither outlet has provided a response from Representative Miller’s office regarding these specific demands.
