d president signs the appropriation bill into law.

Explanation:

After the President submits a budget proposal to Congress, the next formal step in the U.S. federal budget process is for the House and Senate Budget Committees to draft their own budget resolutions based on reviewing the President's proposal. A continuing resolution is only used if Congress fails to pass budgets by the fiscal year start, oversight happens after funding is approved, and the President signs bills only after Congress passes appropriation legislation later in the process.

Answer:

A. House and Senate budget committees draft budget plans.
