Yueseyuan Cruel made a conditional guilty plea to possessing fifteen counterfeit securities, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 513(a) (2000). He was sentenced to fifteen months imprisonment. On appeal, counsel has filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 *263 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), alleging that there are no meritorious claims on appeal but raising the following issue: whether 18 U.S.C. § 513(a) is constitutional in light of United States v. Lopez, 514 U.S. 549, 115 S.Ct. 1624, 131 L.Ed.2d 626 (1995). We review de novo whether a federal statute is constitutional. United States v. Buculei, 262 F.3d 322, 327 (4th Cir. 2001), cert. denied, 535 U.S. 963, 122 S.Ct. 1378, 152 L.Ed.2d 370 (2002).

We find that a violation of § 513(a) contains a jurisdictional element which shows an affect on interstate or foreign commerce, and thus the statute does not run afoul of Lopez. See United States v. Kovach, 208 F.3d 1215, 1217 (10th Cir. 2000). Thus, we agree with counsel that this claim fails on appeal. Despite notice of his right to do so, Cruel has failed to file a pro se supplemental brief.

We have examined the entire record in this case in accordance with the requirements of Anders, and find no meritorious issues for appeal. Accordingly, we affirm. This court requires that counsel inform his client, in writing, of his right to petition the Supreme Court of the United States for further review. If the client requests that a petition be filed, but counsel believes that such a petition would be frivolous, then counsel may move in this court for leave to withdraw from representation. Counsel’s motion must state that a copy thereof was served on the client. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.
