Tim,

I know this is true for most unions, but why then are AMLU memebers released every year?

I have no idea why the AMLU members would have allowed such a clause to be included in their contract unless they simply had no choice. I suppose we could compare it to similar union contracts that provide for mandatory early retirement, but that might be a stretch.
