The North Dakota Veteran Bonds and Constitutional Convention Referendum, also known as Amendment 6, was on the September 5, 1978 ballot in North Dakota as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment, where it was approved.[1] The measure repealed amendments pertaining to issuance of bonds to pay for bonuses to veterans of World War II and the Korean and Vietnam conflicts. Each of these amendments had authorized the issuance, sale and delivery of bonds in order to pay for the adjusted compensation of each group of veterans. It also repealed a 1970 amendment calling for a constitutional convention. The measure removed sections 59, 65, 87 and 88 of the North Dakota Constitution.[2][3]
