You know, it's not that hard to actually look things up.

The "law passed by Congress" is 49 USC § 40127. The authority to pass this law
is granted to Congress by the Constitution.


But the law itself has no other Constitutional backing. It can be
repealed by a simple majority of Congress (Again under authority granted
under the constitution) without having to go through the rigamoral that
is required if you want to change to the constitution itself.
