BBC News reports the chamber adjourned within minutes after a Republican objection and will meet again tomorrow for a vote.
A group of Democrats also introduced an article of impeachment against the president, to be acted on if Mr Pence fails to act
They charge Trump with "incitement of insurrection" related to the invasion of the US Capitol last Thursday.
Trump has made no public statements since he was banned from several social media platforms.
He leaves office on 20 January, when US President-elect Joe Biden is inaugurated.
