Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy has joined Texas Gov. Greg Abbott in a lawsuit in federal court against President Joe Biden and top Pentagon officials to stop a COVID-19 vaccine mandate for National Guard members.

The lawsuit is an amended version of the suit Texas filed at the start of January over the Pentagon’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate.
