Bill H.256, introduced by Representative Krasnow, aims to amend the Judiciary Employees Labor Relations Act to allow Judiciary supervisors to organize and bargain collectively. The bill modifies the definition of "Employee" within the act, specifically removing the term "supervisory" from the list of exclusions, thereby potentially allowing supervisors to be included in collective bargaining efforts. Additionally, it introduces a new provision that permits the exclusion of employees determined by the Board to be in positions inconsistent with the chapter's intent.

The bill also establishes an effective date of July 1, 2025, for its provisions. This change reflects a significant shift in labor relations within the Judiciary Department, as it opens the door for supervisors to engage in collective bargaining, which was previously restricted.
