The assassination of President James Garfield in 1881 played a significant role in changing the Republican Party's position on civil service reform. Garfield's assassination by a disgruntled office-seeker who was denied a government job exposed the corrupt and patronage-based system in place. As a result, Republicans recognized the need for merit-based selection and began supporting civil service reform efforts, culminating in the passage of the Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act in 1883.
