I doubt it would satisfy them, if the language of the bill, and the arguments being used thus far, is a valid indication. What they want is the ability to decrypt, and to get that means compelling companies to enduring cryptographic key escrow service, which law enforcement can use a subpoena to have Apple, Google, Microsoft, etc use to turn over plain text.
So far this is "data at rest" request. It's for data on the phone. It's not for data in motion which is another technology that PFS makes rather difficult to impractical to setup key escrowing for, that's sorta the point. But then, the basebands are all proprietary and probably compromised by state (nations) actors.
