Columbus, OH, August 12, 2026 —
Columbus, OH – U.S. Representative Max Miller, R-Ohio, is facing allegations of domestic violence and child abuse. The congressman has publicly denied these accusations.
Despite the seriousness of the claims, Miller has stated his intention to continue his campaign and remain in the 2026 reelection race. The allegations have drawn responses from notable political figures.
Former President Donald Trump has offered supportive remarks for Miller. House Speaker Mike Johnson indicated that the appropriate channel for addressing such matters would be an ethics investigation, suggesting it be conducted after the election.
