English term or phrase: motion
The purpose of this motion is to stop and close debate immediately and vote on a main motion or amendment under consideration.
If previous question is ordered regarding an amendment, debate can continue on the main motion after the previous question on the amendment is voted.
Privileged motions, motion to table, and incidental motions take precedence over previous question.

Motion (in this context). I've seen a translation as "moção", but need to confirm if that is appropriate in this case.

Explanation:
Sugestão

The purpose of this motion (reunião/movimento) is to stop and close debate immediately and vote on (projeto /proposta) principal or amendment under consideration.

O contexto precisa ser observado, se procurar em sinônimos de "moção" vai encontrar a palavra "proposta", Porém na primeira vez que aparece a palavra "motion" ela tem sentido de "reunião, debate e movimento"
