I was not aware that the US anti-trust review includes a congressional vote. Did I miss that law being passed?

Yep. I, in effect, hire his staff to negotiate, with Verizon, a much lower price for cell phone service than what my family members -- I've a daughter who tells me she uses about 2,500 texts a month -- would pay Verizon directly. Plus no contract. Plus you can get an additional free reconditioned phone every time you pay your monthly fee. Plus we lost a phone, and they allowed the remaining paid days in the month to roll over into one of these spare free phones I've gotten. And after all that, he makes enough profit to be the richest man in the world.
