I seem to recall an early Obama-era (2008 to 2010ish) bit of federal legislation that was proposed that would forbid US hotels from falsely lowering their advertised price and then jacking up the price at the desk with "resort fees". It amounted to bait-and-switch...I also remember it was bipartisan and had the support of both parties.

But what I don't remember is what became of it...anyone know?
