1Opinion of the Court
HOWARD, Circuit Judge.
Elsa Odina Herrera-Martinez (“Herrera”) was convicted by a jury of three counts stemming from her use of personal information, including a Social Security number, that did not belong to her in order to secure subsidized housing under a federal program. She maintains that she cannot be guilty of these offenses because her behavior does not constitute a crime under the three statutes at issue. We do not read the statutes as she does, and we affirm.
