Edwin Van Meter Champion (born September 18, 1890) was a Democratic member of the United States House of Representatives from Illinois. He represented Illinois as an at-large Representative, serving a single term in Congress. His tenure in the U.S. House began on January 5, 1937, and concluded on January 3, 1939.

Champion’s service in Congress placed him among the historical members representing Illinois at the federal level during the late 1930s. As an at-large Representative, he was elected to serve the interests of the entire state rather than a specific geographic district. He completed one term in office and did not return to Congress thereafter. Further details about his committee assignments, congressional office, or subsequent career are not provided in the available record.
