What does the US Supreme Court make sure all laws follow?

All laws and Executive Orders are required to follow the principles of the US Constitution; however, it would be a mistake to think the US Supreme Court "makes sure" this happens. The Court can only review laws and Orders that are part of, or relevant to, a case under their review. If Congress passes a law that is never challenged, and the law is unconstitutional, the Supreme Court can't do anything about it.


If supreme court overrules roe vs wade must the decision be ratified by the states?

The Supreme Court (or any other court) is very unlikely to reverse prior case law decisions. However to directly answer your question, decisions by court of any kind are "final" and require no ratification by anyone. Court decisions may be challenged by new legislation or Constitutional Amendments that try to modify the laws that the court's decisions originally addressed. The court might then have to decide on the new laws and/or amendments, but this would be a new court decision.
