The bill, S.B. No. 1793, mandates the comptroller of public accounts to prepare and submit an annual report to the legislature regarding veteran employment issues in Texas. This report, due by December 31 each year, will assess the impact of veteran-owned businesses on the state's gross domestic product and provide estimates on the number of employed and unemployed veterans, as well as the total number of veteran-owned businesses in the state.

To implement this requirement, the bill adds a new section, 403.0306, to Subchapter B of Chapter 403 in the Government Code. The new legal language specifies the content and timing of the report, ensuring that the legislature receives updated and relevant information on veteran employment and entrepreneurship in Texas. The bill is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
