Trump was impeached on Wednesday by the House on the single charge--incitement of insurrection, in lightning-quick proceedings just a week after violence broke out at the US Capitol.
If convicted, Donald Trump would be removed from office and succeeded by the Vice President. It would be the first time a U.S. president had been impeached twice.
The proposed legislation will keep every federal agency running at current funding levels till December 11, which will help keep the government afloat even after the election and possibly reshuffle Washington's balance of power.
Trump's response followed a White House letter issued on Tuesday that notified the Democrats of an uncooperative stance of the administration in relation to their efforts to remove the president from office.
US President Donald Trump has accepted an invitation from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and has agreed to deliver the State of the Union address on February 5 as the US government has now fully reopened.
House Democrats are promising to prioritize anti-discrimination legislation next year that would establish widespread equal rights protection for LGBTQ individuals.
