FAA does not require one to "get" notifications from the AMA.

As you know or should know from completing your TRUST test, it is the recreational operator's responsibility to check for a variety of things, including TFRs. And in the list of locations where the test lists as authoritative sources, "notifications from the AMA" are not one of them. In fact, one could make an argument that an individual who operates their recreational sUAS without checking LAANC, FAA's NOTAMs and TFR lists directly are not in compliance with what they were told is required on the TRUST test.
