Yes. It can be rescinded, it can be found invalid, and it can be found unconstitutional.

Yes, laws can be reversed or repealed through the legislative process. This typically involves the passage of a new law that explicitly nullifies or changes the existing law. The reversal of a law can occur at any level of government, from local ordinances to federal statutes.

Simply a new law is created that replaces the old one. However in cases of written constitutions, the new law must be in step with the constitution.
