PER CURIAM: *

David Tiburcio-Avila appeals the sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for being found illegally in the United States after deportation. Tiburcio-Avila was sentenced to 57 months in prison and three years of supervised release. Tiburcio-Avila contends that the district court abused its discretion by imposing as a condition of supervised release that he cooperate in the collection of a DNA sample. Because this issue is not ripe for review, this court does not have jurisdiction, and the appeal must be dismissed in part. *See United States v. Riascos-Cuenu,*428 F.3d 1100, 1101-02 (5th Cir.2005), *cert. granted, judgment vacated by Riascos-Cuenu v. U.S.,*— U.S. -, 127 S.Ct. 827, — L.Ed.2d - (2006). Tiburcio-Avila correctly concedes that the ripeness issue is foreclosed by circuit precedent but raises his argument to preserve it for further review.

Tiburcio-Avila argues that the district court plainly erred in imposing his sentence under the then mandatory United States Sentencing Guidelines, which were subsequently held unconstitutional in *United States v. Booker,*543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005). Because he did not raise this issue in the district court, review is limited to plain error. *See United States v. Harris,*104 F.3d 1465, 1471-72 (5th Cir.1997). Under the plain-error standard of review, “reversal is not required unless there is (1) an error; (2) that is clear or plain; (3) that affects the defendant’s substantial rights; and (4) that seriously affects the fairness, integrity, or public reputation of judicial proceedings.” *United States v. Vasquez,*216 F.3d 456, 459 (5th Cir.2000). The imposition of Tiburcio-Avila’s sentence under the mandatory Guidelines was error that was plain. *See United States v. Martinez-Lugo,*411 F.3d 597, 600 (5th Cir.), *cert. denied,*— U.S. -, 126 S.Ct. 464, 163 L.Ed.2d 352 (2005). However, Tiburcio-Avila has not shown that the error affected his substantial rights as he has not shown that the district court would likely have imposed a lesser sentence under an advisory guidelines sentencing scheme. *See id.*at 600-01. Therefore, he has not shown that the district court’s imposition of his sentence under the mandatory Guidelines was reversible plain error. *See id.*

Tiburcio-Avila argues that his conviction should be vacated because the “felony” and “aggravated felony” provisions of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(b) are unconstitutional. *355His 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 Tiburcio-Avila contends that *AlmendarezTorres*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 *Almendarez-Torres*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). Tiburcio-Avila 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.

JUDGMENT AFFIRMED; APPEAL DISMISSED IN PART.
