What, then, does American English call a union?

What do you mean? In English a single word can have multiple meanings.

A "Labor Union" is colloquially a Union. A marriage is also called a "Union". And so is the mathematical operation joining two sets.

Union in the broad labour union sense, but without the labour specificity. The same union we’ve been talking about all along.

Not sure why you think we’d randomly change the topic all of a sudden for no reason…
