Charles William "Bill" Carrico, Sr. (born November 6, 1961, in Marion, Virginia) is an American politician in the Republican Party. Since 2002, he has been a member of the Virginia House of Delegates, representing the 5th District in the southwestern part of the state. Prior to that, he was a Virginia State Trooper.

In 2005, Carrico introduced an amendment to the religious freedom clause of the Virginia state constitution, based on the Virginia Statute of Religious Freedom written by Thomas Jefferson. The amendment posited a positive right to permit prayer on "public property, including public schools". The proposed amendment passed the House but died in the Virginia State Senate.[1]

Carrico was the Republican nominee for the U.S. Congress in Virginia's 9th Congressional District but was unsuccessful in his challenge to the incumbent, Democrat Rick Boucher, in the 2006 mid-term election.
