Juan Arevalo-Sanchez appeals from his guilty plea conviction and sentence for illegal reentry after deportation and following a conviction for an aggravated felony, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. Arevalo-San *391 chez’s constitutional challenge to § 1326(b) is foreclosed by Almendarez-Torres v. United States, 523 U.S. 224, 235, 118 S.Ct. 1219, 140 L.Ed.2d 350 (1998). Although Arevalo-Sanchez contends that Almendarez-Torres was incorrectly decided and that a majority of the Supreme Court would overrule Almendarez-Torres in light of Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466, 120 S.Ct. 2348, 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000), we have repeatedly rejected such arguments on the basis that AlmendarezTorres remains binding. See United States v. Garza-Lopez, 410 F.3d 268, 276 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, — U.S.-, 126 S.Ct. 298, 163 L.Ed.2d 260 (2005). Arevalo-Sanchez properly concedes that his argument is foreclosed in light of Almendarez-Torres and circuit precedent, but he raises it here to preserve it for further review.

Arevalo-Sanchez contends that his 1993 and 1995 convictions for simple possession of a controlled substance should not have been treated as aggravated felonies for purposes of an eight-level enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(l)(C). During the pendency of this case, the Supreme Court decided Lopez v. Gonzales, — U.S. -, 127 S.Ct. 625, 633, 166 L.Ed.2d 462 (2006), which held that a state offense meets the definition of a “ ‘felony punishable under the Controlled Substances Act’ only if it proscribes conduct punishable as a felony under that federal law.” In the light of Lopez, Arevalo-Sanchez’s argument has merit. See United States v. Estrada-Mendoza, 475 F.3d 258, 260-61 (5th Cir. 2007). Arevalo-Sanchez’s unopposed motion to remand his case for resentencing is GRANTED. Arevalo-Sanchez’s conviction is AFFIRMED; Arevalo-Sanchez’s sentence is VACATED and REMANDED for resentencing in accordance with Lopez. We express no opinion on the issue whether the § 2L1.2(b)(l)(C) enhancement was appropriate because Arevalo-Sanchez’s 1995 possession offense qualified as “recidivist possession.” See Lopez, 127 S.Ct. at 630 n. 6; United States v. Sanchez-Villalobos, 412 F.3d 572, 576-77 (5th Cir. 2005).
