Cir.2001). Our plain reading of this statute is supported by the fact Congress, when enacting the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986, amended § 3583(b) by adding the introductory phrase “[e]xcept as otherwise provided” at the same time it enacted 21 U.S.C. § 841(b)(1)(A) concerning drug offenses, which not only sets minimum terms of supervised release that are absent in § 3583(b) but does not limit the maximum term of supervised release, as § 3583(b) does. See id. As the Second Circuit has explained, it is apparent Congress, in enacting the Anti-Drug Abuse Act, “intended to enhance the penalties available to combat drug offenses.” Eng, 14 F.3d at 173. Having determined the maximum terms of supervised release in § 3583(b) do not apply to drug offenses under 21 g, 14 F.3d at 172-73 (2d Cir.) (<HOLDING>). Legislative history supports such reasoning.
holding that term of supervised release was not automatically terminated when defendant was deported from united states and thus defendants subsequent commission of another offense illegal reentry after deportation prior to expiration of term of supervised release violated condition of supervised release that defendant commit no new offenses holding that further supervised release may be ordered as a sentence for violation of supervised release holding that a completed term of confinement did not render a challenge to the reasonableness of a sentence moot where defendant could receive a reduced term of supervised release holding defendant convicted under  841b1a may receive lifetime term of supervised release holding term of supervised release tolled while defendant was in state custody
