(Br.43). But as this Court has already recognized, Section 3283's text \"reaches beyond the offense and its legal elements to the conduct 'involv[ed]' in the offense\"—a \"linguistic expansion\" that shows Congress's intent for \"courts to look beyond the bare legal charges in deciding whether § 3283 applied.\" Weingarten, 865 F.3d at 59-60; see also Nijhawan v. Holder, 557 U.S. 29, 32, 38 (2009) (holding that a statute that includes an \"offense . . . involves\" phrase is \"consistent with a circumstance-specific approach\"). Indeed, the Third Circuit has expressly rejected an \"'essential ingredient' test\" comparable to the categorical approach and instead applied case-specific analysis to determine that Section 3283 applied to travel with intent to commit an illegal sex act with a minor, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2423(b). Schneider, 801 F.3d at 196-97.\n\nMaxwell also argues that \"the clear weight of authority\" holds that statutes employing similar language \"should be read through a categorical rather than case-specific lens.\" (Br.44-45). But the decisions she cites involved statutes with other features favoring the categorical approach, which are notably absent here. Some cases involved statutes that defined a \"crime of violence\" as an offense that either \"has as an element\" the use of physical force or \"by its nature\" involves a substantial risk of force—language that invokes an elements-based approach.
