Congress doesn't "overturn" laws--the courts do.

Congress can repeal a law, but both houses have to agree, and the president has to sign. If the president vetoes the repeal then it requires a two thirds vote in both chambers to overturn the veto.

And as to your OP, the no way in hell the GOP or Trump will agree to Medicare for All. They already had a chance to do DACA and they refused.
