aligns
Puts in order
Aligns means to arrange in a straight line or bring into proper position: The surveyor aligned the markers along the property boundary.
Extended uses involve agreement or coordination: political parties that align on key issues, business strategies that align with company values.
To align yourself with someone is to publicly support their position or join their side.
