1. In addition to the tax imposed in section 149.015, there is hereby imposed a tax upon the sale of cigarettes equal to that portion of the federal excise tax on cigarettes which is abolished on October 1, 1985. The tax imposed by this section shall be collected in the same manner and at the same time as the tax imposed in section 149.015; however, any portion of such tax shall not be imposed or collected to the extent that the federal government reimposes or imposes or otherwise collects all or part of the federal excise tax now imposed.

2. The provisions of section 149.065 to the contrary notwithstanding, the proceeds from the tax imposed by this section, less any compensation authorized for wholesalers for affixing stamps as provided in section 149.021, shall be deposited in the state treasury to the credit of general revenue.
