From Florida:

A slice of $7.5 million in federal stimulus money is being offered to help homeless sex offenders and predators living under the Julia Tuttle Causeway to cover rent, housing and utilities.
The money comes from federal funds designated for homeless people in Miami-Dade, but convicted sex offenders who meet income requirements are eligible, said Ron Book, chairman of the Miami-Dade Homeless Trust, who has led efforts to find housing for the bridge dwellers.
Under the program, participants can receive financial assistance for up to 18 months, but must be recertified every 90 days.
The camp, which has become a national embarrassment for Miami, is emptying.
