In this case, since those kiosks do not accept passports, NEXUS members would be able to enter the US without a passport book.

GE members would need a passport book and can use the GE kiosks where they are available.
Since all preclearance airports now offer GE kiosks, a NEXUS member can, if he or she wishes to, enter the US by air without his or her NEXUS card.
