The case represents a break with the usual process of states coordinating with the federal government in reviewing mergers, and generally coming to a joint conclusion. Fast forward to 2019, and the Republican Trump administration signed off on the planned merger after the companies agreed to sell Sprint’s prepaid businesses popular with people with poor credit to satellite television company Dish Network Corp.
