The New York state comptroller sent a letter to Best Buy last week questioning whether the company changed its commitment to inclusivity and supporting LGBTQ groups.
The comptroller's office manages the state's $207 billion public pension fund, which has invested in Best Buy.
He also denied that the NCPPR pressured Best Buy to stop supporting LGBTQ groups in general.
"This contentious and vast disagreement between radical gender theory activists and the general public has nothing to do with Best Buy selling electronics."
Peck did not ask Best Buy to stop its donations to the HRC, saying in the email, "We understand that it's unrealistic for Best Buy to leave HRC in the near future because of their political clout."
