Yes a neighbor is anybody within close proximity. However, the bible also allows for some pretty harsh treatment of lawbreakers, which illegal immigrants are, by definition.

@Phil @realcaseyrollins @Java ☝🤓 Actually, it's a mistranslation, it's supposed to be "peer", and not "neighbor".
The Samaritan is clearly not someone "within close proximity".

What Jesus explains, via his parable, is that a sense of justice (the highest value, a cardinal virtue, and the heroic motivation) is what makes a man "thy peer" whom you must love.

This however, is not something economic migrants (AKA gimme-grants) have, as demonstrated by their own actions.

Thus they can go fuck off.

PS: Divine law, and what is right, is not the same as state law.
Though in this case the two overlap.
