Luther Badger (April 10, 1785 - 1869) was a United States Representative from New York.

Born in Partridgefield, Massachusetts (now Peru, Massachusetts), Badger moved with his father to New York in 1786. He attended Hamilton College in 1807 and studied law; in 1812 he was admitted to the bar in and commenced practice in Jamesville, New York. From 1819 to 1827 he served as judge advocate of the Twenty-seventh Brigade, New York Militia.

Badger was elected as an Adams to the Nineteenth Congress (March 4, 1825-March 3, 1827).

He resumed the practice of his profession and moved to Broome County in 1832. From 1833 to 1847 he was Examiner in chancery; he was appointed commissioner of United States loans in 1840, and served until 1843.

Badger was elected district attorney of Broome County and served from July 5, 1847, until his resignation in November 1849. He resumed the practice of law in Jordan, New York, where he died in 1869. His remains were interred in Jordan Cemetery.
