Supreme Court Declines Review on Question on the Application of the Citizenship Clause to American Samoa

Discussion here (with reference to NYT op-ed). Tricky thing here is the local government, which apparently has support of the people, didn't want citizenship. Fear (which might be somewhat misplaced but maybe some laws are problematic) some local laws would be challenged especially those favoring locals. Can there be a way specific policies (favoring citizens) be challenged here? Or, allow people, by right, to choose to be American citizens?
