Hello! I am looking for some new Clarinet music to play, and work on with a Pianist. What pieces do you think are "staples" that every Clarinet player should learn? Thanks!

Brahms Sonatas, Weber Concerti, Mozart Concerto, Debussy Rhapsody, Stravinsky 3 Pieces, Saint Saens Sonata, Some of the concours solos (Messager, rabaud), Copeland Concerto, Finzi bagatelles, Poulenc Sonata. Those seem like some of the biggest.

Be cheap.
Get a copy of Masterworks for Clarinet and Piano. Schirmer's Library, Vol 1747.
Its got works by Weber, Schumann, Mendelssohn, Brahms.
AND ---all of the pieces were WRITTEN for clarinet and piano. That is to say that the pianist is (at least) half of the team. That is good and bad.
Good includes: pianist NOT pretending to be a symphony orchestra, NOT a blasted "piano reduction."
Bad: You'll need a really competent pianist.
There's enough work in there to keep you busy for two lifetimes.

By "new music", do you mean "new to you"? Or do you mean "newly written"?
