You can use it without "to". For example you can say "I suggest you go home" or "he suggested (that) we work harder". With "to" it's incorrect. I hope that helps.

Nope, it's not correct. The correct form would be: Suggest that you + verb without to I suggest that you take prevents measures. I suggest that she come (without "s") home soon.
