Joseph Galloway (1731—August 10, 1803) is an American politician.

Galloway becomes a Loyalist during the American Revolutionary War, after serving as delegate to the Second Continental Congress from Pennsylvania.

For much of his career in Pennsylvanian politics he is a close ally of Benjamin Franklin, and he becomes a leading figure in the colony.

As a delegate to the Continental Congress Galloway is a moderate, and he proposes a Plan of Union that would have averted a full break from Britain.

When this is rejected, Galloway moves increasingly towards Loyalism.

After 1778 he lives in Britain, where he acts as a leader of the Loyalist movement and an advisor to the government.

Once Britain's Parliament grants American independence as part of the Peace of Paris (1783) many Loyalists go into forced exile and Galloway permanently settles in Britain.
