It is a bit confusing, largely because you have not what country issued your passport.
Based on the assumption that you are a citizen of a country other than the US and are traveling in the US, it sounds as though you were issued a passport-replacing document ("temporary passport") which is a limited document generally issued to permit you to get back to the country issuing the passport where a new passport will be issued.
But, impossible to provide anything other than this level of speculation without facts.
