    UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Juan Isabel ROMERO-HERNANDEZ, Defendant-Appellant.
    No. 14-40349
    Summary Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Dec. 29, 2014.
    Renata Ann Gowie, Assistant U.S. Attorney, Houston, TX, for Plaintiff-Appel-lee.
    Marjorie A. Meyers, Federal Public Defender, Philip G. Gallagher, Assistant Federal Public Defender, Michael Lance Herman, Assistant Federal Public Defender, Laura Fletcher Leavitt, Assistant Federal Public Defender, Houston, TX, for Defendant-Appellant.
    Before SMITH, PRADO, and, OWEN, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

Juan Isabel Romero-Hernandez appeals the 57-month within-guidelines sentence imposed following his conviction for illegal reentry after deportation. He challenges the district court’s application of a 16-level enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(l)(A)(ii). Specifically, Romero-Hernandez argues that his prior Texas conviction for indecency with a child does not qualify as a crime of violence because the Texas statute does not require an age differential of at least four years between the victim and the perpetrator and permits a conviction where the victim is under 17 years of age. These arguments are foreclosed by our decision in United States v. Rodriguez, 711 F.3d 541, 560, 562 n. 28 (5th Cir.2013) (en banc), cert. denied, - U.S. -, 134 S.Ct. 512, 187 L.Ed.2d 365 (2013).

Romero-Hernandez argues that the Texas statute includes conduct that does not constitute “abuse” within the generic meaning of “sexual abuse of a minor” and is therefore not a crime of violence under § 2L1.2. He further contends that the district court erred in treating the Texas conviction as an aggravated felony for purposes of the enhanced penalty provision of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(b)(2). Because Romero-Hernandez raises these arguments for the first time on appeal, we review for plain error. See United States v. Chavez-Hernandez, 671 F.3d 494, 497 (5th Cir.2012).

The state court documents show that Romero-Hernandez was convicted of indecency with a child in violation of Texas Penal Code § 21.11. Indecency with a child can be committed by contact, in violation of Texas Penal Code § 21.11(a)(1), or by exposure, in violation of Texas Penal Code § 21.11(a)(2). We have previously held that both offenses constitute sexual abuse of a minor for purposes of § 2L 1.2(b)(1) (A) (ii). United States v. Najera-Najera, 519 F.3d 509, 512 & n. 2 (5th Cir.2008); United States v. Zavala-Sustaita, 214 F.3d 601, 604-05 (5th Cir.2000). In the wake of our en banc decision in Rodriguez, 711 F.3d at 548, 552, which created a new plain-meaning approach for offense categories that were not denned at common law, it remains true that a violation of § 21.11(a) constitutes sexual abuse of a minor for purposes of § 2L1.2(b)(l)(A)(ii). United States v. Elizondo-Hernandez, 755 F.3d 779, 781-82 (5th Cir.2014) (per cu-riam). There is no plain error in the application of the 16-level enhancement. Nor did the district court err in treating his conviction under § 21.11(a) as an aggravated felony for purposes of the increased penalty provisions of § 1326(b). See Zavala-Sustaita, 214 F.3d at 603-07. The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
