IMHO that’s a valid concern; the landscape & challenges shift after you (as a faction) establish your voice & having seat at a table, the main fight (before planning & implementing policy) is about balancing your core rhetoric with the direction you wanna push the consensus on & it’s … quite hard

The (summer) DC terrorist attack quite literally created the pretext for the bans being revived & surges in attacks/arrests on a lot of communities!

Honestly that’d be great (& technically feasible for almost all of them besides maybe AS) as long as we can re-index & reform the house’s size and maybe senate rules [but that’s obv way harder than it sounds even compared to create a framework for the islands to form a joint state]

Reservation in a Pacific state would probably be their preferred option if they can get it (especially due to their size & if it comes with more straightforward citizenship rules)

The thing is AS would lose their national status/pathways & probably a lot of the services directly staffed & provided by federal personnel on the island & Guamanians/Marianans would lose their citizenship & probably a good chunk of their funding (not to mention the limits imposed by the FAS)

Yeah your proposal for legislation of holding a (I assume binding) referendum that’d determine the island’s fate is probably the least objectionable path.
I wonder how many options should be presented tho? (Statehood,FAS-Status,Independence, and the status quo?)

IIRC American Samoans’ mostly self-selected their way into being unincorporated, otherwise they’d have to give up their Tribal leadership & Land laws (maybe you can give them both by admitting as a reservation island inside a bigger pacific state but who knows)

They’d lose their citizenship & passports (and no path to citizenship unlike say, American Samoans) and probably won’t be able to have any immigration or customs agreements with other countries or the FAS status would be revoked
