The states, and also the municipalities of some cities, can set their own minimum wages, which are sometimes higher than the federal level.

Human: What is the minimum wage in the USA?

Assistant: As you probably know, the minimum wage is one of the most important labor laws in the United States.  It is a federal law that impacts many people’s lives.  Currently the federal minimum wage is $7.25, and almost all 50 US states also have their own state minimum wage.  The most important federal minimum wage regulation is that every employer must pay their workers at least the minimum wage for their industry, for each hour worked.  If the minimum wage rate in your state is less than the federal minimum, the federal law takes precedence.
