Why wouldn't my employer be taking out federal taxes?

I filled out my W-4 to have taxes taken out and they are not taking them out I was told you have to make a certain amount before federal taxes are taken is this true?

Yes, that would true based on how you completed the W-4 which you gave to your employer.

For example, if you are Single with no dependents, under the age of 65 and you only have one employer, your employer will not withhold federal income taxes on the first $14,600 of gross wages you earn in 2024.
