MEMORANDUM **
Martin Alareon-Jaimez appeals the sentence imposed following his guilty plea to illegal reentry after deportation in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a).
Alareon-Jaimez contends that in light of Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466, 120 S.Ct. 2348, 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000), the district court improperly imposed a sentence in excess of the two year maximum set forth in 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a). He acknowledges that his contention is foreclosed by this court’s recent holdings, see e.g., United States v. Arellano-Rivera, 244 F.3d 1119, 1126-27 (9th Cir.2001), but raises the issue to preserve in the event that the Supreme Court revisits the issue. We affirm the district court.
AFFIRMED.
