If the forger produced a forged identity document consisting of a birth certificate purportedly issued by a foreign government, then sent a copy of the document (whether a scan or a photograph, doesn’t matter) by electronic means or in the mails, the section will apply. Even merely “possessing” the document in a way that affects “interstate commerce” brings the activity within federal law.

I don’t see that in the statute. Is there a case interpreting the statute that way?
