The subjunctive is a special kind of present tense which has no –s in the third person singular. It is sometimes used in that-clauses in a formal style, especially in American English, after words which express the idea that something is important or desirable (e.g. suggest, recommend, ask, insist, vital, essential, important, advice). The same forms are used in both present and past sentences.

It is essential that every child have the same educational opportunities.

We felt it was important that James write to Uncle Arthur as soon as possible. Our advice is that the company invest in new equipment.

The judge recommended that Simmons remain in prison for at least three years. Do is not used in negative subjunctives. Note the word order.

We considered it desirable that he not leave school before finishing his exams.
