Which states do Trump's tariffs hit the hardest

Data: Trade Partnership Worldwide, via National Taxpayers Union Foundation .

Note: Includes tariffs mandated by executive order only.

Totals through June 2026.

Map: Brad Jennings/Axios States bear wildly different estimated tariff burdens from President Trump's trade actions since the start of 2025, from California's $62.8 billion share to Wyoming's $107 million.

Why it matters: Local industries dictate how and how hard communities have been hit, from Michigan's auto industry to Virginia's aerospace sector.

By the numbers: California has absorbed the biggest chunk of the overall $342 billion estimated tab, according to National Taxpayers Union Foundation data.

Michigan's $23.2 billion tab is smaller, but amounts to an estimated equivalent of $5,619 per household, the highest in the nation .

Zoom in: The primary industries driving states' tariff costs offer a glimpse into local economies.

Vehicles dominate tariffs in Michigan, while auto parts lead in neighboring Indiana and Ohio.

Toys and games were the leading tariff target in Minnesota, home to Target and several game companies .

In Florida, food — think imported winter produce — is the biggest tariff-hit category.

Yes, but: The Supreme Court struck down Trump's sweeping emergency-power tariffs in February, and importers are now seeking refunds for billions of dollars in duties already paid.

The data reflect tariffs collected through June 2026, including some costs that could ultimately be refunded, even as the administration explores alternative tariff approaches .

The fine print: Axios analyzed state tariff estimates from Trade Partnership Worldwide, compiled by the National Taxpayers Union Foundation.
