There is plenty of Helium-3 on Earth too, which doesn't matter because Helium-3 doesn't matter. We can't build working fusion reactors now, and won't be able to do it for decades, and Helium-3 may not even be the best fuel when we do have working fusion reactors.
It's like Columbus asking Queen Elizabeth for billions to explore Texas so we'll have fuel for Model Ts.
