The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Can legislative compromises solve moral issues?
It is an interesting question that cannot be answered with a simple "yes" or "no." That is the nature of moral and ethical issues.
Legislative compromises serve to dictate laws that must be enforced. But you cannot enforce a moral issue. That is why it is moral.
Legislators must serve the citizens who voted for them. Not to the interests of political action committees (PACs) or private interests of corporations. Legislators serve the American people, not to a lobbyist that negotiates on the personal agendas of the people who are rich.
That is the moral issue. The way a legislator is going to act when facing the pressure of particular political agendas that are the opposite of the interests of the US citizens.
