Here's the 4th amendment:

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Is it "unreasonable" to require government officials to disclose their financial dealings?

no. that’s just your limited view.

do you not see this is desantis (the great and wonderful governor/sarc) allowing NWO crap in his state on a huge level? first financial disclosure for govt jobs, then later on, for private jobs too.

I’m in the n FL area Gulf coast side and the papers here have several stories of resignations from elected office. This is having an impact DeSantis did not anticipate. We’re losing lots of good people and the bad ones will stay and lie.

Another aspect of this is jealous "friends", neighbors and relatives.

I order to afford to be a volunteer person you have to make some money somehow to be able to afford to do it.

Some such folks would have businesses making a substantial amount of money.

If the amount the officials make is known, their lives may become miserable. This will piss off the jealous types and have the parasite types hounding you for money

I would have to hire a lawyer AND an accountant to accurately fill out all that information.

Small towns/rural areas all over the USA are like this

No. We don’t need to know EVERY financial aspect of the lives of low level officials. Just another way to keep competent people from EVER offering their service for public good.
