Doesn’t that make sense as a law? Why should I, as a shareholder, have to fly across the country to ask for a provision to be voted on that I am allowed some say in what the execs at MY company make?

Makes no sense.

Make it law.

No, it doesn't make sense as law. The shareholders (all of them, not just you) are the owners of the company. It is purely their decision as to how they want to compensate their CEO.
