FILE - In this Thursday, Jan. 16, 2014, file photo, State Sen. Roderick Wright, D-Inglewood takes the stand during his perjury and voter fraud trial at Los Angeles Superior court.

Wright apologized Friday Jan. 31, 2014, after he was rebuked by a spokesman for Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg, a fellow Democrat, and said he will not try to advance the bill through committee, effectively killing it.
