As T-Mobile-Sprint shot clock re-starts, merger remains against the public interest

According to CWA President Chris Shelton, “combining T-Mobile and Sprint would harm the public interest in the form of 30,000 fewer jobs, lower wages by as much as $3,000 per year, and higher prices for consumers with disproportionate harm to low-income communities. This merger should be opposed as currently structured.”
