Id. at 221-22. And in applying this categorical approach, Bridges looked, not to the legislative history of the WSLA, but to Scharton and Noveck (which involved a different statute).

Because § 3283 employs the same “offense-involving” language as the statutes analyzed in those cases, compare 18 U.S.C. § 3283 with id. § 3287; 26 U.S.C. § 6531, a similar interpretation should govern.
