How can I straighten a bent footrest support on my Barcalounger?

My Barcalounger recliner footrest hits the floor when I bring the chair forward after reclining. This prevents the footrest from closing fully into the chair. I turned the chair over with it extended and I see that one of the bars that support the footrest is bent. Any ideas on how to straighten the bar?
