Idaho tribe's tobacco tax goes to health, schools
Wednesday, January 21, 2004

The Shoshone-Bannock Tribes of Idaho are funneling a portion of tobacco tax revenues to health and education programs on the Fort Hall Reservation.

The tribe began imposing its own tax in November. The money is funding a tobacco prevention program for youth that will also highlight the traditional role of tobacco.
