But that doesn't mean the "fight for $15" is going away. The Southeast Wyoming Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) are hosting a virtual forum on Thursday, March 11, to discuss and make the case for raising the minimum wage. While the federal minimum wage is $7.25, Wyoming's minimum wage is $5.15. The effort to raise the state minimum wage mirrors the national debate about the federal minimum wage, in which progressives argue that the current minimum of less than $8 an hour falls far short of what people and families need to survive.
