Wyoming's state minimum wage ($5.15/hr, W.S. § 27-4-202) is below the federal $7.25 FLSA floor — Wyoming is one of only two states with a sub-federal state rate (along with Georgia) — and in practice nearly all Wyoming workers receive the federal floor via FLSA coverage.

The federal minimum of $7.25 is the rate that applies to nearly all Wyoming workers. Wyoming's statutory rate of $5.15 is below the federal FLSA floor of $7.25, so it governs only the narrow set of employers the FLSA does not cover. Source.
