All U.S. Citizens will have to show a passport book or passport card starting June 1, when entering the country through international borders and sea ports of entry.

After June 1, U.S. Citizens older than 16 traveling by land or sea must show one of the documents.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials will not longer accept a driver’s license or a birth certificate as proof of citizenship.

Those traveling by air will continue to show a U.S. passport book to re-enter the U.S. from international flights.

Our Digital Archive

This blog page archives the entire digital archive of the Tucson Citizen from 1993 to 2009. It was gleaned from a database that was not intended to be displayed as a public web archive. Therefore, some of the text in some stories displays a little oddly. Also, this database did not contain any links to photos, so though the archive contains numerous captions for photos, there are no links to any of those photos.

There are more than 230,000 articles in this archive.

In TucsonCitizen.com Morgue, Part 1, we have preserved the Tucson Citizen newspaper's web archive from 2006 to 2009. To view those stories (all of which are duplicated here) go to Morgue Part 1
