HB 2836 increases the minimum wage in Texas to $13 per hour, or the federal minimum wage if it is higher. The bill repeals an existing section of the Labor Code that allows employers to pay certain employees less than the minimum wage. This change applies statewide and affects all employers covered by state wage laws​.
