(The Center Square) — New Hampshire's top law enforcement official has come out against a Republican proposal aimed at protecting gun owners, warning that it actually could endanger Second Amendment rights.

In a letter to state lawmakers, Attorney General John Formella called on them to reject the latest version of Senate Bill 609, which would prevent state agencies or local governments from enacting their own rules on the possession of guns and other regulated weapons.
