Max Miller is facing growing calls from Senate Republicans to resign or end his reelection bid \u2013 but has so far vowed to remain in the race as he denies abuse allegations from his ex-wife.\n    <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/?p=8727\">Why engaging your core isn\u2019t always the answer<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n            Sen. Jon Husted, an Ohio Republican, said on Thursday \u2013 after sidestepping questions on the matter for days \u2013 that Miller should end his campaign and leave Congress.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cI believe Max would be making the right decision to step aside as a candidate and resign from Congress to focus on what is in the best interest of his daughter. Years from now, I believe he will look back and know it was the right choice for her,\u201d Husted posted on X.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n            Pressed later on why he took so long to call on Miller to resign, Husted said: \u201cThat speaks for itself.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Miller, meanwhile, has denied any wrongdoing and vowed to stay in his reelection race.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cI\u2019m going to continue to push. I am going to win this race,\u201d Miller told CNN\u2019s Jake Tapper on \u201cThe Lead\u201d earlier this week.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            While publicly Miller continues to be defiant that he won\u2019t abandon his bid for reelection, an intense push to get him out of the race is still underway by party officials, who believe he could now imperil the GOP\u2019s chances in the district, according to a source familiar with the matter.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Ohio\u2019s 7th Congressional District is solidly Republican with Trump winning there by 11 points in 2024.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            So far, the efforts haven\u2019t been successful, but the slew of statements calling for him to get out are expected to continue, the source told CNN.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Over the weekend, Ohio GOP Sen. Bernie Moreno \u2013 Miller\u2019s former father-in-law \u2013 said that Miller \u201cshould not serve\u201d in Congress, calling him \u201ca danger to my daughter.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/?p=8721\">Trump officials say they\u2019re strengthening Head Start with proposed rule. Critics say they\u2019ll gut it<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cHe should not serve in the House of Representatives,\u201d Moreno said on X.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n            Sen. Katie Britt, an Alabama Republican, backed up Moreno, telling CNN \u201cwe should stand with Bernie\u201d when asked if senators need to call for Miller to step aside.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cMy heart is broken for his granddaughter and his daughter. Their safety is what\u2019s most important and we should stand with Bernie,\u201d she told CNN.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Speaking to reporters earlier this week, Sen. Moreno suggested that Miller had withheld a blue bunny from his daughter \u2013 the senator\u2019s granddaughter \u2013 saying that at one point \u201cMax would not hand over the little blue bunny, literally held it hostage for 48 hours.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cThis girl is crying at night because she can\u2019t sleep without her little blue bunny,\u201d he said.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            In the interview with Tapper on Tuesday, Miller denied that, saying, \u201cThis is nothing more than an individual who\u2019s being politically vindictive.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            On Wednesday, Miller posted on X a message to Sen. Moreno to \u201cstop the lies.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Montana GOP Sen. Tim Sheehy said on X Thursday, responding to a post by a reporter regarding the blue bunny, \u201cMax should step aside and seek help. Staying in this race makes it far more likely we lose this seat and hand Democrats a majority to impeach President Trump.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Another Republican \u2013 GOP Sen. Mike Rounds of South Dakota \u2013 said he would stay out of the matter.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Asked by CNN if Miller should step down or stop running given how open Moreno has been about the ordeal, Rounds replied, \u201cI think if Senator Moreno has made it very clear that it\u2019s a very sensitive family member, and I\u2019ll let him do it. I\u2019m not following it, and I don\u2019t have any more information than anybody else has. I will stay out of it.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Rounds emphasized, \u201cIt\u2019s one thing to be accused. I\u2019ll let those individuals who are investigating it take the lead.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/?p=8719\">Supersonic flight is making a comeback decades after the Concorde.
