The Mar-A-Lago Act (https://www.govinfo.gov/bulkdata/BILLS/116/1/hr/BILLS-116hr1736ih.xml) has, in section 2:

SEC. 2. IMPROVING ACCESS TO INFLUENTIAL VISITOR ACCESS RECORDS.

(a) Definitions.—In this section:

(1) COVERED LOCATION.—The term “covered location” means—

(A) the White House;

(B) the residence of the Vice President; and

(C) any other location at which the President or the Vice President regularly conducts official business.

(2) COVERED RECORDS.—The term “covered records” means information relating to a visit at a covered location, which shall include—

(A) the name of each visitor at the covered location;

(B) the name of each individual with whom each visitor described in subparagraph (A) met at the covered location; and

(C) the purpose of the visit.

(b) Requirement.—Except as provided in subsection (c), not later than 30 days after the date of enactment of this Act, the President shall establish and update, every 90 days, a publicly available database that contains covered records for the preceding 30-day period.

(c) Exceptions.—

(1) IN GENERAL.—The President shall not include in the database established under subsection (b) any covered record—

(A) the posting of which would implicate personal privacy or law enforcement concerns or threaten national security; or

(B) relating to a purely personal guest at a covered location.

(2) SENSITIVE MEETINGS.—With respect to a particularly sensitive meeting at a covered location, the President shall—

(A) include the number of visitors at the covered location in the database established under subsection (b); and

(B) post the applicable covered records in the database established under subsection (b) when the President determines that release of the covered records is no longer sensitive.

Compare to section 602 of 116hr5150 (https://www.govinfo.gov/bulkdata/BILLS/116/1/hr/BILLS-116hr5150ih.xml#toc-HA6E5D41CA4604496A974391D8D3EAF02):

SEC. 602. IMPROVING ACCESS TO INFLUENTIAL EXECUTIVE BRANCH OFFICIAL’S VISITOR ACCESS RECORDS.
(a) Disclosure Of White House Visitor Access Records.—Not later than 30 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, and monthly thereafter, the President shall disclose to the public all White House visitor access records for the previous month that are redacted in accordance with subsection (c).

(b) Disclosure Of Agency Visitor Access Records.—Not later than 30 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, and monthly thereafter, the head of each agency shall disclose to the public all visitor access records for the previous month for such agency head that are redacted in accordance with subsection (c).

(c) Information Not Disclosed.—The President under subsection (a), and the head of the relevant agency under subsection (b), as the case may be, may determine to not disclose the following information pursuant to this section:

(1) Any information—

(A) that implicates personal privacy or law enforcement concerns (such as date of birth, social security number, and contact phone number);

(B) that implicates the personal safety of White House staff (including daily arrival and departure); or

(C) whose release would so threaten national security interests that it outweighs a strong presumption in favor of the public’s interest in disclosure.

(2) For a non-renewable period of up to a year, any information related to purely personal guests of the first and second families, but only if the executive branch’s interest in protecting an unfettered consultation conducted in secret strongly outweighs the public’s interest in an accountable Government free of corruption and political influence.

(3) Any information related to a small group of particularly sensitive meetings (such as visits of potential Supreme Court nominees).
