Sounds like prior restraint to me.
Crushing small business has always been part of their deal. That includes farmers, by the way.
“A federal judge in Alabama has already ruled this law unconstitutional, yet the federal government continues to move full speed ahead.”
That seems like a problem.
This has been a tremendous pain in the ass.
It’s also just snooping. There is zero legitimate reason for this.

Farmers, ranchers, loggers, miners, & commercial fishermen - aka The War on Natural Resource Harvesters, since 1974
Many Congress critters are small business owners or co-owners.
I bet this gets repealed when their personal data gets delivered.......
UN Agenda 21 , 2030 , Great Reset, ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
All the more reason to elect President Trump.
Everything inside the state, nothing outside. Benito Mussolini would recognize it.
It’s also a money grab. Currently it takes about 15 minutes to fill out but Intuit Quickbooks wanted me to pay them north of $250 to do it for me.

“By the end of this year, Americans will be required to hand over their small businesses’ private data — such as owners’ names and home addresses — to the federal government’s law enforcement database”
Small businesses have to provide that information to the IRS anyway.
yes - but what about:
They will also be required to turn over personal data, which can include uploading their driver’s license, passport, marriage certificate, and other non-business related information, into this law enforcement database.
State Department has your passport. They issue it. If you file a joint return, they know you’re married. Drivers’ license? Honestly? That’s your “personal information”? Law enforcement can get anything they want on you, but especially public records. This is a tempest in a teapot brewed on Mount Molehill.
What’s more, since I’m communicating with you from overseas, we are being monitored under FISA. Or can be. I think anyone monitoring me will be bored and switch to some guy cheating on his wife, smoking reefer or watching porn, or something. Nothing I do is even black-mail-able.
"By the end of this year, Americans will be required to hand over their small businesses’ private data — such as owners’ names and home addresses — to the federal government’s law enforcement database, operated by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network [??? emphasis added] (FinCEN), housed under the Department of the Treasury."
The repealable (hint) 16th Amendment (16A; direct taxes) is probably the federal government's best justification for establishing the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network. There's little doubt concerning FinCEN that the feds want make sure that oppressed taxpayers pay every penny of unconstitutional taxes that the unconstitutionally big federal government steals from them imo.
The ill-conceived 17th Amendment (17A), popular voting for federal senators, needs to disappear too.
Consider that the 16th and 17th Amendments effectively repealed federal government's constitutionally limited power imo, including Supreme Court-clarified limited power to appropriate taxes.
"16th Amendment : The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived [emphasis added], without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration."
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States." —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
“If the tax be not proposed for the common defence, or general welfare, but for other objects, wholly extraneous, (as for instance, for propagating Mahometanism among the Turks, or giving aids and subsidies to a foreign nation, to build palaces for its kings, or erect monuments to its heroes,) it would be wholly indefensible upon constitutional principles [emphases added].” — Justice Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution 2 (1833).
The congressional record shows that Rep. John Bingham, a constitutional lawmaker, had clarified the federal government's constitutionally limited powers as follows.
”Simply this, that the care of the property, the liberty, and the life of the citizen, under the solemn sanction of an oath imposed by your Constitution, is in the States and not in the federal government [emphases added]. I have sought to effect no change in that respect in the Constitution of the country.” —John Bingham, Congressional. Globe. 1866, page 1292 (see top half of third column)
“Cherish, therefore, the spirit of our people, and keep alive their attention. If once they become inattentive to the public affairs, you and I, and Congress and Assemblies, judges and governors, shall all become wolves [emphasis added]. It seems to be the law of our general nature.” - Thomas Jefferson (Letter to Edward Carrington January 16, 1787)
Pelosi: "We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it." (non-FR; 6 sec.)
Illegals are indeed getting immediate Social Security, contrary to Democrat claims (7.11.24)
Democrats [and RINOs] Are Terrified Of An Educated And Informed Public (3.12.23)
Since Congress and likewise renegade states have repeatedly proven that they are enemies of the people imo, it is now up to Democratic and Republican Trump supporters to effectively "impeach and remove" ALL (exceptions?) state and federal lawmakers and executives in November.
In fact, it's up to us Trump supporters to take the first MAJOR step in draining the swamp by supporting hopeful Trump 47 with a new, Constitution-respecting Congress, new state lawmakers too, not only so that he will not be a lame duck president from the first day of his second term, but will support him to quickly finish draining the swamp.
Supporting Trump to finish draining the swamp includes supporting him to put a stop to unconstitutional federal taxes by leading the states to repeal 16&17A, effectively "seceding" ALL the states from the unconstitutionally big federal government by doing so.
Finally, let's not allow the anti-Trump media try to fade our memories of what we witnessed on July 13.
