Changing custody if my kids are in danger from the stepdad?

My children’s mother remarried about 2 years ago and since that time, the situation between my kids and her new husband has gotten worse. He drinks a lot and is becoming more and more abusive toward them. It started with just emotional abuse – yelling and screaming at them – but he recently slapped my older son in the face and has pushed my younger son several times. The boys want out of that house and I’m worried they aren’t safe anymore. Is their stepfather’s abuse enough to prove full custody of my kids should be given to me? If it is, can I get child support from their mother? She doesn’t work but the stepfather does and earns a lot of money. I can take care of my boys but financially it would be difficult on me because I would need to hire someone to watch them after school until I get off work.
