T-Mobile US Inc. is getting some well-connected help in Washington as it seeks to win approval for its purchase of Sprint Corp.: a lobbying firm staffed by former Trump campaign aides.
The wireless service provider said it engaged Washington-based Turnberry Solutions LLC in August. The firm employs Mike Rubino, Jason Osborne and Ryan O’Dwyer, all of whom worked on President Donald Trump’s campaign, according to disclosures.
