Is there any requirement in the law that the women on the board actually do anything other than be a member of it? Would anything stop a woman from offering to sit on your board and pinky promise not to vote for $1k a year? Someone could do that with a whole bunch of companies and everybody wins.

What’s stopping a lobbyist from paying them a lump sum greater than their NPV of $1k/yr to just vote once at a decisive moment?

Also, what is such a person supposed to do if they’re the tie-breaker vote?
