MEMORANDUM **

Wade Austin Hall appeals the sentence imposed following his guilty plea conviction to one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm, a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922 (g)(1). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and 18 U.S.C. § 3742 . We affirm.

Hall contends that 18 U.S.C. 922(g)(1) is an unconstitutional exercise of Congress’ authority under the Commerce Clause. This court has repeatedly rejected this contention, as well as Hall’s contention *831 that United States v. Lopez, 514 U.S. 549 , 115 S.Ct. 1624 , 131 L.Ed.2d 626 (1995), United States v. Morrison, 529 U.S. 598 , 120 S.Ct. 1740 , 146 L.Ed.2d 658 , (2000) and Jones v. United States, 529 U.S. 848 , 120 S.Ct. 1904 , 146 L.Ed.2d 902 (2000) impliedly overruled prior authority finding section 922(g) constitutional. See United States v. Rousseau, 257 F.3d 925, 932-33 (9th Cir.), cert. denied, — U.S. -, 122 S.Ct. 502 , 151 L.Ed.2d 413 (2001); United States v. Davis, 242 F.3d 1162, 1162-63 (9th Cir.) (per curiam), cert. denied, — U.S. -, 122 S.Ct. 178 , 151 L.Ed.2d 123 (2001); United States v. Hanna, 55 F.3d 1456 , 1462 n. 2 (9th Cir.1995).
