It use to be that if you did not have a passport, a notarized US birth certificate was acceptable. That is, if you're a US citizen wanting to get back in the states.

It that no longer acceptable?

It won't be if their plan goes through.......

was reading a few quotes and one government official stated this is a good thing because "passports have your photo on it and that can't be faked"...

Right now, to go between the U.S. and Mexico or the U.S. and Canada, all you have to do is show a valid drivers license, which also has a photo on it.

So, what is the diference other than the passport is issued by the feds and the drivers license is issued by the states.
