Your TIP for the month

What is a motion?
A motion is a a formal proposal that an organization take certain action.
Some examples:
“I move that our club march in the Halloween Parade.”
“I move to rent the town hall for a flower show in June.”
“I move that we erect a new neighborhood sign at a cost not to exceed $5,000.”
“I move that we have a neighborhood picnic on the Fourth of July.

Why say “I move” when making a motion?
In the past, when the British Parliament began considering a subject, a document with the proposed action was literally moved from one place to another place. We retain that idea with “I move,” signifying the beginning of taking action on a certain subject.
