America on $7.25 an hour. By Shannon Stapleton. Federal minimum wage in the United States currently stands at $7.25 an hour, or $1,200-1,300 per month, and hasn't been raised since 2009. Its place relative to the median wage -- less than 40 percent -- makes it one of the lowest minimum wages across OECD countries.
The minimum wage went to $1.00 an hour effective February 1967 for newly covered nonfarm workers, $1.15 in February 1968, $1.30 in February 1969, $1.45 in February 1970, and $1.60 in February 1971.
