SELYA, Circuit Judge.
This case requires us to decide for the first time whether an illegal alien, convicted under the Travel Act for promoting an unlawful activity involving controlled substances, remains eligible for adjustment of status. Concluding, as we do, that the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) correctly answered this question in the negative, we uphold the order of removal and deny the alien's petition for judicial review.
