Rep. Lisa McClain (R-MI) expressed support for Rep. Max Miller’s (R-OH) reelection campaign amid allegations of domestic violence and child abuse. 

Miller was accused by his ex-wife, Emily Moreno, of throwing hot water from a skillet at her body, scalding her, holding a gun to her head, pushing her against a wall, and fracturing their 2-year-old daughter’s collarbone, according to the New York Times. McClain, who is the fourth-highest-ranking Republican in the House of Representatives, said she hopes that the allegations “are not true.”
