Joseph Weldon Bailey, Jr. (December 15, 1892 - July 17, 1943) was a United States congressional representative from Texas. His father, Joseph Weldon Bailey, was also a Texas Congressman.

Bailey was born in Gainesville, Texas and attended the public schools there and in Washington, D.C. He graduated from Princeton University in 1915, and later graduated from the University of Virginia in 1919. He served in the United States Army from 1917 to 1919, during World War I, and achieved the rank of first lieutenant. He was a lawyer, and maintained a private practice

Bailey was elected as a Democrat to the Seventy-third Congress, and served from March 4, 1933 to January 3, 1935. He was not a candidate for renomination in 1934, but was an unsuccessful candidate for the Democratic nomination for the United States Senate, losing in a landslide election to Tom Connally. In 1942, following the outbreak of World War II, Bailey received a commission as a captain in the United States Marine Corps. He died in a car accident in Gainesville in 1943, and is interred in Gainesville Cemetery.
