Answer to Question 1

No. The dissent states that the Court in Babcock recognized that actual communication with non-employee organizers, not mere notice that an organizing drive exists, is necessary to vindicate Section 7 rights. If employees are entitled to learn the advantages of self-organization, holding up signs from the grassy strip by the highway is not sufficient access.

Answer to Question 2

The Supreme Court found that they did have reasonable access to the employees. It points out that signs displayed from the public grassy strip adjoining the parking lot would have informed the employees about the union's organizational efforts.
