For a law to be passed in Congress it needs majority support of the House of Representatives (which is made up of 435 members from districts of similar size) and majority support in the Senate (each state is allocated two members, regardless of population so 100 Senators in total). It also needs to be signed by the President.

The short answer is yes, but before it can pass a law they have to have the authority to do so. Congress can only pass a law if the United States Constitution has expressly given that area to them to control or regulate.

The United States Constitution states that any powers not reserved for the federal government is provided to the states.
