Motion to File

Very symbolic move here.
The Research Bureau report that has been panned by councilors in the past week was scheduled to be sent to Finance Committee just now; immediately, three councilors shouted out “FILE” when it came up.
It’s the circular file vote, the equivalent of ignoring an incoming call or blocking an IM: It means the report won’t be discussed at all, and is buried.
