The range of tariff costs spans from $228 per household in Montana to nearly $6,000 per household in Michigan. States like California, Texas, Michigan and Georgia exhibit significant impacts, chiefly to their auto industries, while many western states show lesser costs.

2024 will be an election year like no other, as President Biden seeks re-election amid economic uncertainty, two wars and questions about his age. His likely foe, former President Trump, faces felony charges and vows revenge on his political enemies.
