Clinton D. Owlett is a Republican member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives. He was elected from the 68th district on June 5, 2018.[2]
Owlett grew up on a dairy farm in Tioga County, Pennsylvania and attended New Covenant Academy. After graduating high school, Owlett completed an internship at Three Springs Ministries.[3] There, he advanced to the position of director of program development and then general manager, before leaving to work at a ski resort. In 2012, he established his own construction and decorating company.[3]
He is married and has four children.[3]
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Owlett introduced legislation that would allow religious institutions to gather in-person.[4] He voted twice to lift the governor's emergency order, once on May 28, 2020, and again on June 9, 2020.[5]
Owlett has amended drug laws, introducing a bill to permanently place carfentanil on the list of Schedule II controlled substances.[6] He has encouraged legislators to co-sponsor laws that would consider it a felony to deliver drugs that results in serious injury.[7]
Owlett supports the deregulation of small farms and the promotion of dairy products. He supports efforts to prohibit plant-based milk from using the term "milk", and advocates for schools to provide larger quantities of dairy milk with school lunches.[8]
In 2021, Owlett supported two bills in the Pennsylvania Legislature that would restrict abortion: a "heartbeat bill" and the Down Syndrome Protection Act, which would prohibit abortions based on prenatal Down syndrome diagnosis.[9]
