They have to put their objection in writing and give it to Pence on the sixth; I don't think a statement released on twatter will cut it.

Are we sure this is actually required or is this more misinformation that is meant to unmotivate and demoralize like #PenceCard?

This is one article I found. Even the lame-stream media explain this part when they report on what might happen. Of course, the problem comes with the last sentence: will the House ever approve an objection? Interesting times.

Joint Session Challenges to Electoral Vote Returns While the tellers announce the results, Members may object to the returns from any individual state as they are announced. Objections to individual state returns must be made in writing by at least one Member each of the Senate and House of Representatives. If an objection meets these requirements, the joint session recesses and the two houses separate and debate the question in their respective chambers for a maximum of two hours. The two houses then vote separately to accept or reject the objection. They then reassemble in joint session, and announce the results of their respective votes. An objection to a stateโ€™s electoral vote must be approved by both houses in order for any contested votes to be excluded.

Seems like it only needs to be done once for each state then they can vote to change the result. Doesn't seem like every single congressmen objecting needs to do it.
