NWLC seeks to intervene to defend the lawfulness of policies that are inclusive of transgender women, and to ensure the interests of all women are represented in this case. [...] BACKGROUND NWLC NWLC is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to the advancement and protection of the legal rights of women and girls, and the right of all persons to be free from sex discrimination. [...] The overwhelming majority of women’s rights and gender justice organizations share the view that the inclusion of women and girls who are transgender in sports advances the goal of equal opportunities for women and girls to benefit from athletic participation. [...] Consistent with its mission of advancing the rights of all women and girls under Title IX and beyond, NWLC has been a strong public advocate for the inclusion of transgender women in women’s sports and inclusive restroom and locker room policies. [...] The Court considers four factors in determining the timeliness of a motion to intervene: (1) the length of time during which the would-be intervenor knew or reasonably should have known of his interest in the case before petitioning for leave to intervene; (2) the extent of the prejudice that existing parties may suffer as a result of the would-be intervenor’s failure to apply for intervention as.
