    it cant only be struck dwn by supreme court only, and this is when it is still a bill, not an act.
    this happens when uppon signin the bill the president decides to find if it is constitutional ,an so it is sent to the S.C.- if it is found unconstitutional it is struck out, if not it is signed by president an in law

    An Act can also be found unconstitutional by the Supreme Court- though not likely to do it is possible.
