Who can alter laws?

Only the legislature can write or rewrite a law. The courts can interpret the law to fill in details and resolve conflicts with other laws, and can also or block enforcement of all or part of most laws if found to be unconstitutional. The US Congress has to power to declare all or part of a law not to be subject to judicial review. The constitution confers that power giving the legislature the final word if it so chooses because the judiciary are not the elected representatives of the people. Recognizing the useful role of the courts, Congress has only rarely attached the clause to any piece of Legislation.
