On October 2, Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody joined the other six state attorneys who support the proposed $26.5 billion T-Mobile–Sprint (TMUS) (S) merger. The other states are Kansas, Louisiana, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, and South Dakota.

On the day, the Department of Justice’s antitrust chief, Makan Delrahim, said, “Florida has been one of the states leading this investigation since the beginning, and I am pleased that they have chosen to join our settlement after completing their thorough review.” He added, “The merger, with the divestitures, will strengthen competition for high-quality 5G networks that will benefit Floridians and American consumers nationwide.”
