ex-officio making motions?

In my organization we have in our statutes that ex-officio members cannot vote. Robert's Rules grants ex-officio members all the same rights as normal members unless otherwise stated. There has been a debate that because we have in our statutes "ex-officio members cannot vote" that also means they are unable to make motions. I disagree because there is nothing in our statutes stating specifically that ex-officio members cannot make motion. Meanwhile others state that because making a motion leads to a vote it, in itself, is essentially the same as voting. So my question; can an ex-officio member motion and is making a motion the same as voting?
