But guess what? Pet groomers weren’t specifically listed among the 68 occupations included. In this solo episode of Beyond the Shears, Crystal Lee, The Groomer’s Accountant, breaks down what this could mean for your grooming business and why a coalition of industry professionals is urging lawmakers to include groomers in the final language of the bill. Crystal also shares key points from a formal letter sent to Congress and explains how you — as a grooming professional — can raise your voice and get involved. If you accept tips and want to make sure you’re treated fairly under this new law, this episode is a must-listen. 📎 Read the letter here: https://www.franchise.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Pet-Grooming-45B-Letter-7.23.25.pdf 📣 Want to take action?
