A motion is a formal proposal made during a meeting or debate for a group to take a specific action or make a decision on a particular issue. It is typically presented by a member of the group and requires a second from another member in order to be discussed and voted on.

A motion is a formal proposal made during a meeting or assembly, typically calling for a decision or action. It is a way for members of a group to express their opinions and vote on matters that affect the organization or its actions.
Typically, a motion includes three elements:
1. Main Motion: The main substance of the proposal, which specifies the proposed action or decision. 2. Seconder: A second member who supports the motion and agrees to bring it to a vote. 3. Vote: A determination by members of the group, usually taken through a show of hands, voice vote, or formal ballot, to either approve or reject the motion.
