What is the religion of a majority of lawyers who work for the ACLU?

Nashville sheriff bows to ACLU, will allow Muslims to wear face veils for
mugshots

A Muslim woman told to remove the veil covering her face to pose for a jail
mugshot has prompted Davidson County Sheriff Daron Hall in Nashville,
Tennessee, to revise his policy regarding religious headwear.
The woman complained to the American Civil Liberties Union, which took up
her cause.
As a result, "beginning Friday," reports Erin Quinn of the
NashvilleTennessean newspaper, "a person wearing face-covering religious
headwear who is being booked into the jail will have two mugshots - one with
the coverings on; the other will be taken with the headwear removed from the
person's face."
According to Quinn:
The second shot will be taken in the presence only of a same-sex guard, be
kept in a confidential file, and opened only through judicial order, said
Karla Weikal, sheriff's office spokeswoman.
The same rule applies at security checkpoints at Justice A.A. Birch Criminal
Justice Building, Historic Metro-Nashville Courthouse and Davidson County
Juvenile Justice Center. If someone wearing a type of religious headwear
sets off a metal detector at the entrance, the person will be taken to a
private room by a guard of the same sex. There, the person will remove the
headdressing and be screened.
While local civil rights and religious leaders Tuesday applauded the
revisions, some Middle Tennessee law enforcement officials said the
sheriff's office might be taking things a bit too far.
