MEMORANDUM ***

Juan Elisea-Gonzalez appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges the 75-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for reentry after deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we vacate and remand for resentencing.

Elisea-Gonzalez makes various allegations of error, including that the district court erred by failing to sua sponte award him a third-level reduction for acceptance of responsibility under U.S.S.G. § 3El.l(b). By joint motion, the parties acknowledge that remand for resentencing is warranted in light of a 2013 amendment to the commentary accompanying U.S.S.G. § 3E1.1(b). See U.S.S.G. § 3E1.1 cmt. n. 6. The parties request, however, that the appeal proceed as to Elisea-Gonzalez’s challenge concerning the district court’s application of a 16-level enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(l)(A). We grant the parties’ motion.

Elisea-Gonzalez first challenges the 16-level enhancement on the ground that it results in impermissible double counting. This contention is foreclosed. See United States v. Garcia-Cardenas, 555 F.3d 1049, 1050 (9th Cir. 2009) (per curiam). Elisea-Gonzalez also challenges the 16-level enhancement as per se unreasonable, arguing that the enhancement is neither “empirically sound” nor based on Congressional intent. We have previously observed that the enhancement under section 2L1.2(b) implements Congressional intent, United States v. Ramirez-Garcia, 269 F.3d 945, 947-48 (9th Cir. 2001), and “serves the legitimate government interest of deterring illegal reentry by those who have committed drug-related and violent crimes,” see United States v. Ruiz-Chairez, 493 F.3d 1089, 1091 (9th Cir. 2007). Moreover, we have explained that, post-Booker, policy-based arguments concerning the Guidelines may be used to attack the reasonableness of a particular sentence, but not to challenge a provision *776 of the Guidelines “in isolation.” See United States v. Barsumyan, 517 F.3d 1154, 1158-59 (9th Cir. 2008). Therefore, we reject Elisea-Gonzalez’s per se challenge to the 16-level enhancement.

VACATED and REMANDED for re-sentencing.
