From Habele Institute
The Compact affords citizens of the three FAS nations the right to travel to, and reside within, the United States and its territories. In the United States these citizens, often termed “COFA Migrants” if they remain for an extended period, enjoy nearly all the rights and responsibilities of native born or naturalized US citizens. It is now estimated the total number of FAS citizens in the US and its territories is nearly equal to the population totals within Palau, the Federated States, and the Marshall Islands. Surveys of these migrants consistently point to pursuit of educational, employment and healthcare opportunities as the primary drivers of migration.
