• noting that an offender charged under subparagraph (C) had possessed 186 grams of crack
• “The point of the First Step Act was to ameliorate certain penalties, including mandatory minimums, attached to drug dealing.”
• “[T]he text and effect of § 841(b)(1)(C) are the same now as before. … [A]ccordingly, convictions under that subsection are not ‘covered offenses,’ as defined by the First Step Act.”
• “The only question that remains is whether § 841(b)(1)(C) was modified by the Fair Sentencing Act and thus, in conjunction with § 841(a)(1), qualifies as a ‘covered offense’ under the First Step Act. The answer is it was not modified and so does not qualify.”
