Using data from the Trade Partnership’s CDxports and CDxjobs databases, The East West Center created an interactive map as well as state- and district-level reports highlighting US exports to Japan and the jobs supported by those exports. View a sample district-level report here. View the rest of the reports as well as the interactive map here.
In a recent report on U.S.-Australia ties, East-West Center used data from the Trade Partnership’s CDxports database to highlight state exports of goods and services to Australia.

U.S. trade continues to expand, and with it, U.S. employment. Today, nearly 40 million U.S. jobs depend on trade. This means that more than one in every five U.S. jobs is linked to exports and imports of goods and services. Nearly three times as many jobs were supported by trade in 2013 as in 1992 – before the accelerated wave of trade liberalization that began with the implementation of the North American Free Trade Agreement in 1994 – when our earlier research found that trade supported 14.5 million jobs, or one in every ten U.S. jobs. Updated from past research and prepared for the Business Roundtable.

“I think trade is absolutely vital—because our jobs depend on it. Twenty years ago, trade supported one out of every ten of our jobs. Now it’s one out of every five. This is our future.”

Renewed interest in “Made in America” begs the question: is anything still “Made in America”? This study answers that question with a resounding “Yes!” if one recognizes that what it means to be made in America is different in today’s world of global supply chains than it was in the 1950s and ’60s, before those supply chains permeated the production of nearly every good or service. We need to rethink what it means to be “Made in America.”
