New FCC finding may clear the way for Sprint/T-Mobile merger
September 27, 2017

The FCC, however, is not of one mind on the matter. Its board narrowly approved the report findings by a 3-to-2 vote. A merger between Sprint and T-mobile, the third and fourth largest firms in the U.S., would represent the first significant antitrust risk of the Trump administration.
