Clarence Edward "Bud" Phillips (born April 8, 1950) is an American politician. A Democrat, he served 11 terms in the Virginia House of Delegates, 1990–2012. He represented a portion of southwestern Virginia that at times included parts of Dickenson, Russell, Tazewell and Wise counties and the independent city of Norton. Phillips elected not to run for a 12th term when his constituency, the 2nd district, was moved to the northern part of the state in a 2011 redistricting.{{cite web | title = Virginia House of Delegates; Session 2011; Phillips, Clarence E.
