ACLU Receives Remarkable $24.1 Million In Online Donations with some of that from when Lyft Donates $1M To ACLU To Combat Trump's Muslim Ban and they just received a little more.

Employees at Twitter have raised $530,000 to support relief efforts following President Trump’s controversial immigration order, according to Twitter employees who spoke with BuzzFeed News. That figure was matched by the company’s Executive Chair Omid Kordestani and CEO Jack Dorsey, the employees said, citing a company-wide email sent Wednesday evening. The total $1.59 million will be donated to the ACLU.

Reached for comment, Twitter confirmed the amounts. – Buzzfeed.com
