Cheney is married to Phillip Perry. Perry is a Partner at Latham & Watkins, a law firm with offices in [[Shanghai]] and [[Beijing]]. Latham & Watkins describes itself as “advising” the technology firm Tencent on its investment in an American company. Tencent has been described by the State Department’s Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation as a “tool of the [[PRC|Chinese government]],” noting the company has “no meaningful ability to tell the [[Chinese Communist Party]] ‘no’ if officials decide to ask for their assistance.” It provides “a foundation of technology-facilitated [[surveillance]] and social control” as part of the CCP’s broader crusade “to shape the world consistent with its [[authoritarian model]],” the State Department report adds. [[Amnesty International]] rated Tencent’s data encryption capabilities zero out of 100, noting it hadn’t “stated publicly that they will not grant government requests to backdoor.” On January 31, 2021, Latham & Watkins boasted that it successfully “persuaded” the U.S. government to lift Trump-era sanctions on state-owned China COSCO Shipping Corporation Limited (COSCO). COSCO is a controversial, Shanghai-based logistics company labeled as a “thinly veiled arm of the [[PLA|Chinese military]]” by a task force of the U.S. House of Representatives. Eleven of its 13 executives boast of high-level Chinese Communist Party affiliations on COSCO’s website. Latham & Watkins also employs as one of Perry's fellow Partners, Hui Xu, describes himself as previously working for China’s Ministry of Commerce where he handled trade remedy, intellectual property, and [[World Trade Organization]] matters. The firm also tracks legislative developments in the CCP, often praising the regime’s “vigorous” environmental laws, even noting “[[President Xi]]’s announcement signals a renewed effort to improve the fragmented political infrastructure of environmental governance in China.” Latham & Watkins has also praised China’s Five-Year Plans for its “increased focus on [[climate change]] and a more open trade environment.”<ref>https://thenationalpulse.com/exclusive/liz-cheney-husbands-firm-reps-ccp-clients/</ref>
