My 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie's passenger door will not open when the key fob is present.
Is there a setting ?

Yes go in to setting app, then to door and lock setting and change "remote door unlock' from driver to all.

Does it unlock if you hit the unlock button twice? In settings, you can have it unlock driver’s door first, 2nd push will unlock all doors.
Can you hear it trying to unlock the door with the remote? It not, could be bad solenoid, plug or wiring issue.

I can lock and unlock the passenger side front door with the key fob remote .
The place on the door handle that you press to lock, and when you slid your hand between the door and the handle tom unlock do not work.. no noises etc. even when the key fob is 2" away.

If you don't change the setting it won't matter how close the fob is and whether or not you slip your hand into the handle.

Sounds like a visit to the dealership is needed. Maybe the door handle needs to be replaced.
Just a guess though.
