Expressing their staunch opposition to the proposed merger between T-Mobile and Sprint, a team of Senate Democrats have written to the Department of Justice’s Antitrust Division and the Federal Communications Commission, urging them to reject the proposal.
T-Mobile and Sprint are in the midst of obtaining regulatory approvals needed for the former company’s $26.5 billion acquisition of the latter, a plan announced in April 2018. Collectively, the companies directly employ more than 80,000 people and serve more than 130 million customers.
