Are you a resident here legally or illegally?
If legal, you will need your green card to get back in to the U.S., plus picture ID l ike a drivers license.
If you are living here illegally, without the proper documents, you wont be able to get back in once you leave.

I'd be careful there, like the first guy that answered, you won't have a problem getting there, I don't think you need a passport going to Cancun, but getting back not registered might be a problem.

Airlines flying into Mexico now require a passport. You can't get on the plane without it.
Eventually everyone will have to show a passport at the US/Mexico border in order to enter Mexico by any mode of transportation. I believe that law goes into effect next year.
Right now, you can enter Mexico at the border with a birth certificate.

Get a passport. It's a more important piece of identification than your SS# or Drivers License. Head to a qualifying post office and pay extra to get a 'rush'. Again, it's official 'US State Department Identification' and you should never leave home without your passport at your side..or a Photocopy of it period.

only a proof of US citizenship is required to enter in Mexico, but maybe also legal residents are admitted, depending on your citizenship you may need a passport and also a visa.
