Summary

79% Informative

Nearly 20 per cent of Michigan 's economy is tied to the automobile sector.

The number of autoworkers in Flint , Michigan , has been declining for decades .

Michigan will also not escape fallout from the president’s 10 per cent universal tariffs and 145 per cent tariffs on Chinese imports.

Experts say the levies hitting Canada and Mexico make the whole North American industry less competitive.

If levies against Canada and Mexico stay in place, it will become more expensive to make a vehicle in the U.S. An extra USD $5,000 could be added to the lowest-tariffed American cars and up to USD $ 12,000 for full-sized SUVs.

Thousands of people still work at Flint Assembly , General Motor’s longest running assembly plant.
