MEMORANDUM **
Bulmaro Gomez-Galvan appeals his guilty plea conviction and 72-month sentence for unlawful reentry of a deported alien in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a). Gomez-Galvan contends that under Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466, 120 S.Ct. 2348, 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000), the district court deprived him of due process by imposing a sentence greater than Section 1326(a)’s two-year maximum based on Gomez-Galvan’s prior aggravated felony, where he did not admit to having previously committed an aggravated felony.
*908Gomez-Galvan, who states that he presents the issue merely to preserve it in the event of ensuing favorable Supreme Court precedent, acknowledges that his argument is foreclosed by United States v. Pacheco-Zepeda, 234 F.3d 411 (9th Cir.), cert. denied, 532 U.S. 966, 121 S.Ct. 1503, 149 L.Ed.2d 388 (2001). Accordingly, the judgment and sentence are AFFIRMED.
