> does this target only CEOs?

No, "CEO Tax" is a popular term for this style of tax, but its not tied to CEOs specifically; its triggered by the pay ratio between the "highest paid managerial employee" of the firm and the median full-time-equivalent pay of full-time and part-time employees based in the City.

highest paid executive makes 100 times or more its median worker’s salary
2 months from now: nation's first executiveless company
The only executive is the CEO's mother making $50K/year
isn't that what Valve pretends to be?
Board member comp should rarely be that high given their part time status.
