            Senate Bill 1548 amends the Government Code to redefine "qualified employee," for the purposes of the Texas Enterprise Zone Act, as a person who, in addition to working for a qualified business and performing at least 50 percent of the person's service for the business at the qualified business site, receives wages from a qualified business from which employment taxes are deducted.
