That's kind of a broad question.
Congress doesn't usually pass laws; they pass bills or "acts." An act becomes a law when the President signs it. If the President doesn't like the bill/act, he (or she) can veto it, or refuse to sign it and send it back. Then Congress has to fix the act or start all over from scratch. If a lot of Congressmen feel strongly about passing the law, they can vote to override the veto. If two-thirds of the Senate and two-thirds of the House of Representatives agree, they can make a bill/act a law even if the President doesn't like it.
If the President does sign an act into law, Congress can vote to amend (change) the law or repeal (unmake) it, but the House of Representatives and the Senate have to agree by voting. If a simple majority (a little more than half) of each part of Congress agrees, then they can change or "unmake" the law.
The law can also be challenged in the federal court system. The Supreme Court may decide a law is unconstitutional and nullify (unmake) it.
So, yes, different parts of government have some ability to stop a law from being passed or to repeal or overturn (unmake) it.
