The 29th Senate district of Wisconsin is one of 33 districts in the Wisconsin Senate. Located in north-central Wisconsin, the district comprises most of Marathon County, along with northern Wood County, and parts of northern Portage County, northwest Waupaca County, and western Shawano County. The district includes the cities of Wausau, Marathon City, Marshfield, and Mosinee.

Current elected officials

Cory Tomczyk is the senator representing the 29th district since January 2023.

Each Wisconsin State Senate district is composed of three Wisconsin State Assembly districts. The 29th Senate district comprises the 85th, 86th, and 87th Assembly districts. The current representatives of those districts are:

Assembly District 85: Patrick Snyder (R–Weston)
Assembly District 86: John Spiros (R–Marshfield)
Assembly District 87: Brent Jacobson (R–Mosinee)

The district, in its current boundaries, crosses three congressional districts. The portion of the district in Waupaca and Shawano counties falls within Wisconsin's 8th congressional district, which is represented by U.S. Representative Mike Gallagher. The portion of the district in Portage and eastern Wood counties falls within Wisconsin's 3rd congressional district, represented by Derrick Van Orden. The remainder of the district falls within Wisconsin's 7th congressional district, represented by Tom Tiffany.
