Upon a proper application by any citizen of this state, it shall be the duty of the commissioner to give a statement or synopsis of the provisions of any insurance contract offered or issued to such citizen. If any such corporation or association or order shall at any time fail or refuse to comply with the provisions of this section, the commissioner shall forthwith suspend or revoke all authority to such corporation, association, or order, and all its agents or officers to do business in this state, and shall publish such revocation in some newspaper published in this state.
