When a member of congress states “I move to strike the last word” it means he or she wants to speak, NBC News reported. The chair then allows the member to speak for five minutes, according to the Congressional Research Committee.

It is used to lengthen the debate, by whoever states this they get 5 min to speak or yield to someone to take that time.
