Bill Analysis

HB 633 would allow projects in counties with a population of not more than one million, to use date compiled but the Texas Workforce Commission's Labor Market and Career Information Department to determine the prevailing wages of public contracts. This state data would only be able to be used if there was no data available through the Office of Management and Budget in the Standard Occupational Classification system.

Vote Recommendation Notes

Texas Action supports HB 633 which may lead to savings for taxpayers.
