top import categories in which states will be most effective by the dynamic changes going on today in those industry sectors. So first, the second biggest category of imports to the US relate to computers and electronics. Those imports are the top related import in nine states.The top import in the country, cars [00:01:00] and auto equipment. That industry sector has the highest value import in 14 states.
And this category includes fully finished cars as well as those partly assembled auto parts and even airline parts. And of course, Michigan leads the country and dollar value of auto-related imports at $108 billion. Given this reality, one, can't help but wonder and ask what will the significance of the Trump tariffs ultimately be here on the state of Michigan, since we depend so heavily on imports related to our top industry, time will tell, of course, new tariffs going into effect here in the month of May, and others threaten some being pulled back.
