{{DISPLAYTITLE:Article III of the Texas Constitution}}[[File:Texas_Constitution_of_1876_Article_3.jpg|125px|border|right|Article III: Legislative Department]]The official title of Article III is "Legislative Department."


'''The Legislature shall have no power or authority to in any manner lend the credit of the State or grant any public money to, or assume any indebtedness, present or future, bonded or otherwise, of any individual, person, firm, partnership, association, corporation, public corporation, public agency, or political subdivision of the State, or anyone else, which is now or hereafter authorized to construct, maintain or operate toll roads and turnpikes within this State except that the Legislature may authorize the Texas Department of Transportation to expend, grant, or loan money, from any source available, for the acquisition, construction, maintenance, or operation of turnpikes, toll roads, and toll bridges.'''
It originally had fifty-eight sections. Ninety-five sections have been added.


|editor=
Four of the original and twenty-five of the added sections have been repealed.


As added in 1954, this section read: "The Legislature shall have no power or authority to in any manner lend the credit of the State or grant any public money to, or assume any indebtedness, present or future, bonded or otherwise, of any individual, person, firm, partnership, association, corporation, public corporation, public agency, or political subdivision of the State, or anyone else, which is now or hereafter authorized to construct, maintain or operate toll roads and turnpikes within this State."
Sections 50-b-4 and 50-b-5 (''"Additional Student Loans"'') have an official title.


The section has been amended twice. The 2001 amendment was part of the ballot proposition that added Article III, Section [[Texas Constitution:Article III, Section 49-k|49-k]]. That section, among other things, created the Texas Mobility Fund.
Note that the term "Proceedings" precedes Section 29.

And "Requirements and Limitations" precedes Section 42.
