I can give you two possible reasons they might not want to put it to a vote at the moment. First, they can campaign against the Democrats in trump districts by using that vote against them. Second, Republicans may want to point to the vote as being purely political so they will whine and moan about political witch hunts and how it should be dropped because it will never go anywhere... all with the hope that public opinion will start going the other way. Right now polls show that public opinion is increasingly favorable toward impeachment. We just need to keep the pressure on and let new revelations drop every day.
