The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) has graciously licensed the use of its "Don't Mess with Texas" slogan to the Texas Music Project to help benefit music education in Texas schools.

Although the program has helped successfully reduce litter by 52 percent since 1995, nearly forty percent of Texans admit to littering in the past three years even though it's illegal and they can be fined up to $500. TxDOT and the Texas Music Project encourage you to take pride in the Lone Star State, and "Don't Mess with Texas."
