Hi,
The answer to this question is easy. YES!!! You will not get past the ticket counter unless you can produce a PP. If by chance you make it to plane and arrive in Cancun or Cozumel and spend around $1,000.00 on air fare you will be detained by the Mexican Fed's. This will be the low light of any travel experience you may have enjoyed. So for all your travel needs, get a Passport you'll enjoy life and travel a lot more.

If you're arriving via flights then YES you do need a passport, although the US is letting you travel with proof that you've filed for a passport...if you're cruising or driving to Mexico (not Cozumel though...haha it's an island - very nice one too) then you can just use your birth certificate/driver's license to entry.

New Requirements for Travelers Between the United States and Mexico: Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) effective January 23, 2007, all U.S. citizens traveling by air to and from Mexico are required to have a valid passport to enter the United States. As early as January 1, 2008, U.S. citizens traveling between the United States and Mexico by land or sea (including ferries), may be required to present a valid U.S. passport or other documents as determined by the Department of Homeland Security. Ample advance notice will be provided to enable the public to obtain passports or passport cards for land/sea entries. American citizen travelers are encouraged to apply for a U.S. passport or the passport card when it becomes available, well in advance of anticipated travel. American citizens can visit travel.state.gov or call 1-877-4USA-PPT (1-877-487-2778) for information on applying for a passport.

You need proof that you applied for your passport. The government is being lenient until September (I believe) because they are sooo backed up with trying to process them. I applied 2 months before I went to Jamaica and got in on time, but you never know. Your proof of applying is the stamped receipt you get from wherever you go (usually the Post Office).

well if you take your offical birth certificate and license shouldn't have a problem comming back into the U.S. however, due to the problem of illegal immigration they might give you a hard time so its recommened to get a pass port. Its also recommened to apply for a passport and show proof of your application along with your offical birth certificate (NOT A COPY) actual license (NOT A COPY) and just in case take your voters regristration card. Good luck

you in straightforward terms prefer a passport whilst traveling in another united states of america. in no way in favour of traveling around the U.S. or a similar state. i think of you do no longer prefer one to bypass into Mexico or Canada even regardless of the undeniable fact that.

Unless you plan on driving ...or... unless you have hard proof that your passport is on its way or in process, the answer is simply YES.
