Postmaster General Blount called for eliminating political patronage from the Post Office as central to fixing the system. He outlined plans to form a task force from business leaders to recruit top executives and keep two regional directors, arguing patronage undercuts efficiency and national security. He warned Republicans of a traumatic shift but urged action to modernize the department.
