If it hasn't yet been ratified by three-quarters of the states, all you have to do is prevent some of them from ratifying it. For instance: the Child Labor Amendment, passed in 1924, was ratified by only 28 states. If you want to "undo" it, all you have to do is watch out for any state that discusses passing it, and lobby the state's legislature not to do it.If it has been passed and ratified, the only option is to pass another amendment reversing it. This has been done once (the 21st amendment reversed the 18th).
To pass an amendment in the United States, it requires a two-thirds majority of both houses of Congress. There are 100 senators in total, so at least 67 senators would need to vote in favor of the amendment for it to pass.
