Is there a monthly fee for freelancers?
No, there is not for a basic membership. However to propose on a job you need a number of connects (2,4,6 even though officially it's 1-6). Connects cost $0.15 per connect and have to be bought in bundles.
Connects will be sold in bundles:
There have been two recent(ish) changes in that there are no longer free connects given monthly (and jobs cost more than 2 connects). You can read more about it here:

Most important points:
No free connects monthly
New accounts get a one time allotment of 20
Getting noticed as a Rising Talent gets you one time allotement of 30
So, nothing on a monthly cost but applying for projects is not free.
