He previously served in the U.S. Army for over 20 years, retiring as a Lieutenant Colonel. Miller also worked as an assistant professor teaching economics at the United States Military Academy. If elected, some of his top priorities would be supporting veterans, lowering taxes and regulations, securing the border, and defending the second amendment.read less
