William Dale Brisson (born August 18, 1946) is a Republican member of the North Carolina House of Representatives. He has represented the 22nd district, covering Bladen County and a portion of Sampson County, since 2007. Brisson lives in Bladen County, North Carolina.

After narrowly losing in 2004, Brisson defeated incumbent Democrat Edd Nye in the 2006 Democratic primary for House District 22 and ran unopposed in the general election. Brisson defeated primary challenges in the 2008, 2010, 2012, and 2016 elections, and defeated his Republican challengers in the 2010 and 2014 elections.

During the 2016 legislative session, Brisson was one of 11 Democrats to vote in favor of House Bill 2, the controversial "Bathroom Bill."

On October 25, 2017, Brisson announced his intention to switch from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party. He cited his district's rural character and the increasing liberalness of the Democratic Party as the reasoning for his decision.

In December 2025, Brisson announced his intention to retire at the end of his term in December 2026. Thus far, two republicans have announced their intention to run for his seat.
