The Montana Tobacco Tax Initiative, also known as LR-64, was on the November 8, 1966 ballot in Montana as a legislatively referred state statute, where it was approved. The measure continued the three cent per package cigarette tax to redeem the bonds issued to pay the World War I, World War II and Korean War Veterans' Bonus. The measure also levied a similar tax on all other tobacco products with the proceeds used to finance construction and remodeling of state buildings.[1][2]
