The HIll: Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross said Tuesday that building a 5G mobile broadband network is a chief concern for the Trump administration.
The remarks come as Sprint and T-Mobile push for a merger that they argue would help bolster the United States's development of a high-speed 5G network.
“I think the pitch that Sprint and T-Mobile are making is an interesting one, that their merger would propel Verizon and AT&T into more active pursuit of 5G,” Ross said during an interview with CNBC.
