| T-Mobile executives have repeatedly stayed at the Trump Hotel in D.C. since announcing the company’s proposed merger with Sprint — a deal that requires the administration’s approval to move forward. Donate today to help us fight this sketchy behavior.
Friend,
Let’s play a game called Sketch or Not Sketch.
Here’s the set-up: Last April, T-Mobile and Sprint announced their plan to merge their competing companies into one — a $26-billion deal that requires the Trump administration’s approval.
The next day, nine of T-Mobile’s top executives — including magenta superfan CEO John Legere — booked a multi-day stay at the Trump Hotel in Washington, D.C.
Over the course of the next two months, T-Mobile executives returned to the Trump Hotel nearly a dozen times.
So ... Sketch or Not Sketch? (Pauses for dramatic impact.) Correct! Major Sketch! They might as well change their name to T(rump)-Mobile.
Jokes aside, this is what we’re up against. For nearly a year we’ve been fighting this proposed job-killing merger, which would raise prices, crush competition and disproportionately impact low-income folks and people of color.
Help fight mega-sketch and donate today to stop this mega-merger.
We’ve already organized tens of thousands of people to file comments against the deal. We’ve protested outside T-Mobile and Sprint stores. And last week we turned folks out in communities across California to speak out against the deal in public hearings.
But it’s gonna take a lot to push back against this kind of blatant corruption. And we don’t take money from businesses because we need to be able to hold them accountable. Same goes for government and political parties. We’re accountable to people like you and our shared values of equity and justice.
Give $5, $15 or $25 today to help us stop the T-Mobile/Sprint deal.
Fighting sketch isn’t easy and it isn’t cheap. Your donations will power the pushback. We can’t do this without you.
Thanks for all that you do—
Candace, Carrie, Dutch and the rest of the Free Press Action team
