The movement against the proposed merger between AT&T and T-Mobile USA gained greater momentum late last week, when seven state attorney generals, including New York’s, joined the U.S. Justice Department’s lawsuit to block the deal.
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.
T-Mobile, the island’s third-largest wireless carrier, announced its support for the third year in a row, to the efforts in benefit of the Susan G. Komen for the Cure’s Puerto Rico chapter. The company will again sponsor the Susan G. Komen “Race for the Cure” 5K event, to take place Oct. 9.
