Biography

William Joseph Burke (born September 25, 1862) was a Republican member of the United States House of Representatives from Pennsylvania. He represented Pennsylvania as a Representative in Congress from May 19, 1919, to March 3, 1923, serving two terms. During his tenure, he was identified with the Republican Party and held office as a federal legislator rather than a state or local official.

Burke served as a Representative for Pennsylvania without a specified numbered district, listed here as district “-1,” from 1919 to 1923. His service in Congress concluded on March 3, 1923, after which he is recorded as a former officeholder. Further details about his committee assignments, office location, or subsequent career are not provided in the available metadata.
