In a 1978 message to Congress, Carter said, 'Civil Service reform will be the centerpiece of government reorganization during my term in office.' This highlighted his focus on establishing a functional federal workforce.
Eizenstat wrote in a Washington Post op-ed, 'Carter established the Senior Executive Service and insulated civil service workers against political pressure, slowing the revolving door for departing officials.' This showcases Carter's significant reforms.
Other accomplishments during Carter's four White House years included creating the Office of Personnel Management, the Merit Systems Protection Board and the Federal Labor Relations Authority. These institutions still shape governance.
