   U.S. businesses and consumers bore about 90 percent   
   of the cost of President Trump’s sweeping tariffs,   
   according to a recent report by the Federal Reserve   
   Bank of New York.   
      
   The study, published Thursday, found that the   
   majority of costs that came from tariffs were   
   passed onto the American public in the first 11   
   months of 2025, contradicting Trump’s promises   
   that foreign companies would pay the import   
   taxes.

   Over the course of 2025, the average tariff rate   
   on U.S. imports increased from 2.6 to 13 percent.   
   In this blog post, we ask how much of the tariffs   
   were paid by the U.S., using import data through   
   November 2025. We find that nearly 90 percent of   
   the tariffs’ economic burden fell on U.S. firms   
   and consumers.
