The following excerpt is from Spavone v. N.Y. State Dep't of Corr. Servs., No. 11-617 (2nd Cir. 2013):

F.2d 1266, 1268-69 (7th Cir. 1990). This is consistent with our previous treatment of such claims. See Benjamin v. Jacobson, 172 F.3d 144, 165 (2d Cir. 1999) (en banc) (applying traditional rational basis review).
