The SLD experiment at SLAC has performed several precise tests of the electroweak Standard Model. This paper summarizes the measurements of Z couplings to leptons and quarks. Most of these measurements are preliminary and many incorporate the full SLD dataset of 550,000 polarized Z decays. A future experiment with the SLAC polarized beam, E158, is also described. It will measure the lepton coupling asymmetry in a new kinematic region.
