The Montana Rights and Remedies for Injury or Damage Amendment, also known as CI-30, was on the November 4, 1986 ballot in Montana as an initiated constitutional amendment, where it was approved.

The measure required a two-thirds vote of each house to set dollar limits on damages for economic loss resulting from bodily injury.[1][2]
