Governor Shivers signed HB 125 amending the Texas Unemployment Compensation Act to shift collection to the state and grant experience-based rates. The move lowers payroll taxes for about 35,000 Texas firms to as low as 0.4 percent after an initial 3 percent period, potentially saving $8.5 billion annually for taxpayers and covering roughly 175,000 more workers. The bill tightens fraud provisions and adjusts notices to employers while retaining federal admin costs.
