The ACLU and the EFF have signed the letter. Is this a PR move for them as well?

They're certainly not signing it just to save face. They weren't the ones who were recently revealed to have secretly cooperated with the program.
If you were the EFF would you refrain from signing when the outcome aligns to an acceptable result? I believe that this is a PR move, but I also believe this is not the moment to dismiss the effort.
