    While I have not studied the new laws it appears that yes not to leave but to come back into the US you will be needing it. I understand it started on the international flights first but it will be effecting all entry from my understanding

    Thank you for your input. I guess I will have to look into getting a passport soon then.

    QUEBALL,

    You do not need a passport to cross the border until June 30, 2009.

    However, that deadline could be moved up to as early as Jan 1, 2008.

    But for now, you are OK.

    Note:
    Those dates are in reference to crossing the border by land (car, truck, etc.)

    If you are to cross the border by air or sea, you do need a passport.
