On Monday, July 15, the Associated Builders & Contractors of South Texas, joined by several other business groups, filed suit against the City of San Antonio seeking to block the implementation of the Paid Sick Leave ordinance set to go into effect, for most businesses, on August 1, 2019. The lawsuit alleges, like the Austin case pending in the Texas Supreme Court, that the ordinance violates the Texas Minimum Wage Act. An injunction hearing is set for July 24, 2019, at 9 a.m. If the court issues the injunction, the San Antonio ordinance will likely be put on hold while this continues to work its way through the courts.
