The Louisiana Repeal First Use Tax Fund Amendment, also known as Amendment 6, was on the ballot in Louisiana on September 11, 1982, as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment. It was defeated. It proposed to repeal Section 9 of Article IX of the constitution which established the First Use Tax Trust Fund. This action would give the state more leeway in using the taxes derived from gas that originated on the outer continental shelf.[1][2]
