CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) - U.S. House Representative Max Miller, who represents Ohio’s 7th district, wrote an opinion column in the Washington Times calling for the National Guard to be deployed to Cleveland to help with crime.

Miller states that his constituents in the suburbs are afraid to go into the city of Cleveland, and small businesses are being boarded up.

“The people of Cleveland deserve to feel safe again. They deserve to live without fear. The people I represent should be able to go to a Guardians, Browns, or Cavs game without fearing for their lives. There is no higher duty of government than this,” Rep. Miller said.

Miller said the Cleveland he grew up in is now unrecognizable. The lawmaker graduated from Shaker Heights High School and currently lives in Bay Village.
