AI Summary
This bill amends the Texas Labor Code to gradually increase the state's minimum wage over a five-year period, starting at $9.25 per hour in 2020 and reaching $15 per hour by 2024. During this transition period, employers are required to pay their employees the greater of the state's minimum wage or the federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour under the Fair Labor Standards Act.
