WASHINGTON—May 25, 2023—The US-China Business Council (USCBC) today released its latest report, US Exports to China, an annual report that overviews the most recent data available on US goods and services exports to China, as well as the American jobs supported by those exports. The report includes detailed information on exports from every US state and congressional district to China. USCBC is a US-headquartered trade association of more than 270 American companies, including some of the most iconic brands.
The US-China trade relationship has grown steadily for decades, but those ties appeared to weaken slightly according to data covered in the report. While 2022 goods exports to China grew slightly compared to 2021 to reach an all-time high, those figures were largely boosted by inflation. Oilseeds and grains was the largest export category by far, while semiconductor and oil and gas exports saw significant declines. Services exports, the data for which lag a year behind that of goods exports, increased in 2021 but remained far below their pre-pandemic trajectory.
Despite headwinds in the trade relationship and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, total US exports of goods and services to China are estimated to have supported more than 1 million American jobs in 2021.
“Every state and congressional district has a unique economic and trade relationship with China,” said Craig Allen, USCBC president. “As policymakers in the United States and China each consider decisions related to the future of the bilateral relationship, it is important that they take into account the stabilizing and beneficial role of trade for both our countries.
“As our reports on US exports to China have shown year after year, exporting goods and services to China supports American businesses and livelihoods, from farmers and ranchers in the heartland, to entrepreneurs and innovators in Silicon Valley and beyond, to leaders in the semiconductor sector, and manufacturers across the country.”

美中贸易全国委员会(USCBC)今天发布最新的《美国对华出口报告》。该报告概述了美国对华商品和服务出口的最新数据,以及通过这些出口支撑的美国就业岗位,还包含了美国各州和国会选区对中国出口的详细信息。美中贸易全国委员会(USCBC)是一家总部位于美国的贸易协会,拥有超过270家美国会员企业,其中包括一些最知名的品牌。
中美贸易关系已稳步增长数十年,但报告中的数据显示这些关系似乎略有放缓。尽管2022年美国对华商品出口总额与2021年相比略有增长,并创下历史新高,但很大程度上通货膨胀拉高了这些数字。油籽和谷物是迄今为止最大的美国对华商品出口类别,而半导体以及石油和天然气的出口则大幅下降。服务出口数据(比商品出口数据滞后一年)虽然在2021年有所增长,但仍远低于疫情前的发展态势。
即使受到中美经贸摩擦和新冠肺炎疫情的影响,据估计2021年美国对华商品和服务出口总额已支撑超过100万个美国就业岗位。
“每个州和国会选区都与中国有着独特的经贸关系”,美中贸易全国委员会会长克雷格·艾伦谈到。“当中美两国决策者思量关乎双边关系未来的决定时,他们需要考虑到贸易为我们两国带来的稳定和益处。”
“正如我们历年的美国对华出口报告所显示的,对华出口的商品和服务支撑着美国企业和民众的生计——从中部地区的农民和牧场主,到硅谷及其他地区的企业家和创新者,再到半导体行业的引领者 , 以及全国各地的制造商。”
