Sen. Jon Tester (D-MT) helped secure federal funding for Montana 's tech hub.

Two tech companies donated $ 30,000 to Tester 's campaign and an affiliated joint fundraising committee.

The donations coincided with a series of meetings Tester held with the executives and their lobbyists as he helped Headwaters Hub receive federal accreditation and ultimately $41 million in grant money.

Reveal executives contributed $ 11,650 to Tester or his affiliated joint fundraising committee.

Next Frontier leadership gave $ 13,200 by way of three contributions from Richard Harjes , another founder and general partner.

Painter said the donations present a possible conflict of interest and could be construed as an attempt to gain access to the senator.

Reveal declined to comment about its donations and meetings with Tester .
