The 29th Guam Legislature was a meeting of the Guam Legislature. It convened in Hagatna, Guam on January 1, 2007, and ended on January 5, 2009, during the 1st and 2nd years of Felix P. Camacho's 2nd Gubernatorial Term.
In the 2006 Guamanian general election, the Republican Party of Guam won a bare majority of seats in the Guam Legislature. Following the death of Republican Senator Antonio R. Unpingco on October 18, 2007, a special election was held in January 2008, at which former Democratic Senator Benjamin J.F. Cruz was elected, shifting the majority to the Democratic Party of Guam. The Democratic caucus took control of the leadership of the 29th Guam Legislature in March 2008
