Those "resort fees" were part of Biden's FTC's efforts to crack down on junk fees. Trump is now undoing that work. https://www.investopedia.com/trump-has-undone-biden-s-war-on-junk-fees-11772720

    I was recently building a web portal that could accept payments. I was looking into ways to avoid the extra credit card fees we'd have to pay to accept them. I was told I can't charge an additional "credit card fee" because a lot of states outlawed them, but was told I could just relabel that fee as a "convenience fee" and it would be completely legal.
