I think this is a bad law, but what specific legal theory could be used to challenge it in court? Please cite the specific section of the law that is in violation of the US Constitution or federal law?

Freedom of speech also covers compelled speech so I would think this would violate that.

No one is being compelled to answer the survey. Have you read the actual law?
