What happens after the Secretary has made a recommended decision to add or deny adding a class of employees to the SEC?
After the Secretary of HHS has made a recommended decision to add or deny adding a class of employees to the SEC, the Secretary will then send the report containing the recommended decision to the petitioners. This report will include a description of the relevant criteria and summary of the information and findings that the recommended decision is based upon. The Secretary will also provide Congress with a report giving the recommended decision, the definition of the class of employees covered by the decision, and the criteria and findings upon which the decision was based for classes to be added to the SEC. Congress will review this information and make the final decision as to whether to add or deny adding the class to the SEC. If Congress takes no action that reverses or expedites the Secretary’s decision, the Secretary’s decision will take effect 30 calendar days after the date the Secretary of HHS’ report is submitted to Congress.
