be in keeping

Maybe voters thought prisoners should be made to work as part of their punishment, which would be in keeping with the broader “tough on crime” tilt of this year’s electorate.

It would also be in keeping with the modern GOP, which over the past decade has been transformed into a vehicle for Trump and his personal brand of right-wing authoritarianism.

That result would be in keeping with the tear Nashville has been on for the last two years or so.

This would be in keeping with the voter-approved Public Records Act, which states: “The people of this state do not yield their sovereignty to the agencies which serve them. The people, in delegating authority, do not give their public servants the right to decide what is good for the people to know and what is not good for them to know.”

Such a decision, expected by June, would be in keeping with recent rulings by the court, which has chipped away at the agency’s authority to address climate change and water pollution.
