There has been some serious discussions over the AT&T and T-Mobile merger, with two groups that either support the merger or are against it with their own reasons. However, Jason Llorenz believes that this merger of two of the leading communication companies might greatly benefit the Latino community. This is an interesting topic since Latinos are the fastest growing demographic adopting mobile technology such as smartphones. Below are four reasons why Latino community leaders support the transaction, if you want further details go to Jason Llorenz’s main blog post.

1. Latino Leaders Support this Transaction Because It Stands to Benefit the Community
2. The Merger Unleashes Investment and Expands Good Jobs
3. The Evidence Doesn’t Support Price and Consolidation Concerns
4. Increased Access to High-Speed Wireless is a Benefit to All Communities – especially the most hard to reach, Rural Latinos

Jason Llorenz is Executive Director of the Hispanic Technology and Telecommunications Partnership.
