False

Let $A=\{0,1\}$ and $B =\{1,2\}$

$\therefore A \cup B=\{0,1,2\}$

$P(A)=\{\varnothing,\{0\},\{1\},\{0,1\}\}$

$P(B)=\{\varnothing,\{1\},\{2\},\{1,2\}\}$

$P(A \cup B)=\{\varnothing,\{1\},\{2\},\{0,1\},\{1,2\},\{0,2\},\{0,1,2\}\}$

$P(A) \cup P(B)=\{\varnothing,\{1\},\{0,1\},\{2\},\{1,2\}\}$

$P(A) \cup P(B)=\{\varnothing,\{1\},\{0,1\},\{2\},\{1,2\}\}$

$\therefore P(A) \cup P(B) \neq P(A \cup B)$
