No sooner had the U.S. Department of Justice filed a lawsuit in a Washington D.C. court to block the proposed $39 billion takeover by AT&T of T-Mobile’s operations, when AT&T shot off a letter expressing its “disappointment” in the government’s action.
It has been nearly a month since the Federal Communications Commission stopped the clock on its 180-day timeline to approve the proposed $39 billion AT&T acquisition of rival T-Mobile.
Washington, D.C.-based National Puerto Rican Coalition threw it support behind the proposed merger between AT&T and T-Mobile, asking the Federal Communications Commission in a letter Friday to approve the deal as it believes it will help to better meet the wireless needs of the Puerto Rican population on and off the island.
