伊利诺伊州共和党众议员玛丽·米勒的丈夫试图与联邦调查局所说的与上个月事件有关联的“激进民兵组织”保持距离国会大厦围攻他的皮卡那天在国会广场被看到，上面有一个宣传该组织的大贴纸。
当贴花宣传“百分之三”民兵组织的消息本周浮出水面时，米勒的丈夫，伊利诺伊州众议员克里斯·米勒，告诉每日野兽他“在假新闻出现之前，对这个组织一无所知”,并开始询问有关他汽车上贴花的问题。
在美国广播公司新闻的一份声明中，克里斯·米勒说他的儿子收到了“一个家庭朋友的”贴纸，他说这代表了爱国主义和对国家的热爱
米勒坚持说他从来都不是这个团体的成员。
但这不是他第一次帮助推广“三个百分点”。在网上发布的视频中，包括一个录像在他自己的脸书页面上，他站在一面“三个百分点”的横幅和一个QAnon标志前，去年他指责民主党人。
“我们可以感谢[，无论是‘歪希拉里’还是‘令人毛骨悚然、昏昏欲睡的乔’都不会成为美国总统，”他在视频中说，该视频是在2020年5月伊利诺伊州斯普林菲尔德的一次集会上拍摄的，他和其他许多人在那里抗议州政府遏制COVID-19大流行的措施。“我们应该感谢……白宫里有一位伟大的美国爱国者，他决心让美国再次伟大起来。”
伊利诺伊州的一个组织帮助组织了这次集会，该组织使用了一个以“三个百分点”为特色的标志。该团体在集会前向追随者承诺，“一些大人物”将会参加。
在网上发布的另一段视频中，克里斯·米勒宣称，“我们已经确定我们的国内敌人是南希·佩洛西。”
1月6日，就在一群暴力暴徒袭击国会大厦的同一天，他们谎称2020年总统选举是从时任总统唐纳德·特朗普那里偷来的，据报道，有人在国会大厦外面看到他的皮卡后窗上贴着三个百分点的贴纸。
据《每日野兽》报道，周四，推特账户@capitolhunters首次报道了这辆卡车和伊利诺伊州众议员之间的联系，该账户正在帮助研究那些参与1月6日袭击的人。

在1月6日暴乱的前一天，众议员米勒在国会大厦外的一次集会上发表讲话时引用了希特勒的话，随后她面临着辞职的要求。
“希特勒有一点是对的:他说，‘谁拥有年轻人，谁就有未来’”，她在1月5日的活动中告诉支持者。她已经道歉，但表示批评者“歪曲”了她的话。
众议员米勒的发言人告诉美国广播公司新闻，这位国会议员和她的同事一起谴责1月6日的暴力事件，“她和她的家人绝没有参与暴力袭击。”发言人没有回答美国广播公司新闻关于米勒丈夫的问题。
司法部公开指控几名参与国会大厦围攻的人系三个百分点。
一名联邦调查局特工在一组指控文件中写道:“在上下文中，“三个百分点”是一个国内民兵组织，倡导抵制美国联邦政府认为侵犯个人、当地和枪支所有权的政策。”
该组织的名字源于这样一种观点，即只有3%的人口能够成功地超越腐败的政府。
根据克里斯·米勒通过发言人向美国广播公司新闻提供的声明，任何与三个百分点派有关联的国会暴徒都只是“抄袭了他们的名字”，因为“最初的”三个百分点派是“一个非暴力的反政府团体”，后来被“解散”。
米勒在声明中说，该运动最近的成员“没有参与1月6日的骚乱”。但当局对这一说法提出了质疑，因为照片在暴乱中展示了三个百分点的横幅，根据美国广播公司新闻的统计，联邦调查局逮捕了至少五名该组织的追随者，指控他们在袭击中的角色。
声明称，尽管如此，克里斯·米勒现在已经从他的卡车上撕下了“百分之三”标签。
GOP representative's husband distances himself from militia group after Jan 6. photos surface
The husband of Rep. Mary Miller, R-Illinois, has tried to distance himself from what the FBI says is a "radical militia group" with ties to last month'sCapitol siege, after his pickup truck was seen on Capitol grounds that day with a large decal promoting the group.
When news of the decal promoting the "Three Percenters" militia group surfaced this week, Miller's husband, Illinois state representative Chris Miller,told the Daily Beasthe "didn't know anything about [the group] until fake news" started asking questions about the decal seen on his vehicle.
In a statement to ABC News, Chris Miller said his son received the sticker "from a family friend who said that it represented patriotism and love of country."
Miller insisted he has never been a member of the group.
But this isn't the first time he has helped promote the Three Percenters. In videos posted online, including onevideoposted to his own Facebook page, he stood in front of a Three Percenters banner -- and a QAnon sign -- last year as he railed against Democrats.
"We can be thankful [that] neither 'Crooked Hillary' or 'Creepy, Sleepy Joe' will ever be the president of the United States," he said in the video, which was shot at a May 2020 rally in Springfield, Illinois, where he and many others protested state measures to curb the COVID-19 pandemic. "We can be thankful … that we have a great American patriot in the White House that is determined to make America great again."
An Illinois-based group that helped organize the rally uses a logo that features "Three Percenters" imagery. The group promised followers ahead of the rally that "some big speakers" would be participating.
In another video of his remarks posted online, Chris Miller declared, "We have identified our domestic enemies as Nancy Pelosi."
On Jan. 6, the same day that a violent mob stormed the Capitol based on false claims that the 2020 presidential election had been stolen from then-president Donald Trump, his pickup truck was reportedly seen outside the Capitol building with the Three Percenters decal on its rear window.
The link between the truck and the Illinois congresswoman was first reported Thursday by the Twitter account @capitolhunters, which is helping to research those who participated in the Jan. 6 attack, according to the Daily Beast.
The day before the Jan. 6 riot, Rep. Miller faced calls for her resignation after she cited Hitler in remarks at a rally outside the Capitol building.
"Hitler was right on one thing: He said, 'Whoever has the youth has the future,'" she told supporters at the Jan. 5 event. She has since apologized but said that critics "twist" her words.
A spokesperson for Rep. Miller told ABC News that the congresswoman joins her colleagues in condemning the violence of Jan. 6 and that "she and her family were in no way involved in the violent attacks." The spokesperson did not respond to ABC News' questions about Miller's husband.
The Justice Department has publicly accused several of those involved in the Capitol siege of havingtiesto the Three Percenters.
"For context, the Three Percenters … is a domestic militia that advocates for resistance to the U.S. federal government policy it considers to infringe on personal, local, and gun ownership rights," an FBI agent wrote in one set of charging documents.
The group's name stems from the view that just three percent of the population can successfully overtake a corrupt government.
According to the statement from Chris Miller provided to ABC News through a spokesman, any Capitol rioters tied to the Three Percenters have just "copied their name," as the "original" Three Percenters were "a non-violent anti-government group" that has since been "disbanded."
Members of the movement's more recent iteration "were not involved in the Jan. 6th riots," Miller said in his statement. But authorities have disputed that claim, asphotosshowed Three Percenter banners at the riot, and the FBI -- according to an ABC News count -- has arrested at least five followers of the group on charges stemming from their role in the attack.
Nevertheless, Chris Miller has now removed the Three Percenters sticker from his truck, the statement said.
