Biographical / Historical
Tim Paulson was a journeyman tilesetter who served in several labor organizations including the San Mateo County Central Labor
Council (2001-2004), the San Francisco Labor Council (2004-2018) and the San Francisco Building and Construction Trades Council
(2018). The Federation of Retired Union Members (FORUM) was affiliated with the San Francisco Labor Council and it was formed
to assist retired union members to organize local union chapters. Among its other purposes were to preserve the spirit of
unionism, to promote participation in social, economic, political, cultural and community activities, and to act as clearinghouse
to develop an effective program for advancing the cause of all retirees, including recommendations for legislative activity.
