   MEMORANDUM

Juan Manuel Silva-Quesada appeals from his 46-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for illegal reentry following deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Silva-Quesada contends that the district court committed procedural error by failing to address his arguments for a lower sentence due to his “cultural assimilation.” The record reflects that the district court listened to the argument, and “then simply found the circumstances insufficient to warrant” a lower sentence. See United States v. Amezcua-Vasquez, 567 F.3d 1050, 1054 (9th Cir.2009).

AFFIRMED.
